Resumo	Bayesian Ant Colony Optimization (BACO) is a hybrid metaheuristic that embeds Bayesian inference into the Ant Colony Optimization framework. By treating pheromone intensities or algorithm parameters as probability distributions updated with collected evidence, BACO improves convergence reliability and robustness compared to classical ACO on noisy or uncertain combinatorial optimization problems.	Bayesian Particle Swarm Optimization (Bayesian PSO) integrates Bayesian probabilistic reasoning into the standard particle swarm framework. Particles update their velocities and positions guided not only by personal and global best positions but also by a Bayesian posterior that encodes prior knowledge about the solution space, enabling more directed and statistically principled exploration of complex optimization landscapes.
