Abstract: To overcome the slow convergence and local extrema of ant colony algorithm(ACA),improvements are proposed in this article.Firstly,control the randomness of the ants via cloud model;secondly,reduce the search region of subsequent cities.Finally,introduce the 2-opt local search strategy.Simulations are implemented on various TSP with cities from 50 to 1 000,and this proposed algorithm is compared with old algorithm.Results demonstrate that the gap of this proposed algorithm is lower and the computation time is shorter than old methods,the advantages becoming notable with the number of cities becoming larger.

摘要: 为了解决传统蚁群算法的收敛速度慢和易陷入局部最优等缺陷,做出如下改进:首先采用云模型来自适应控制蚂蚁的随机性;其次缩小了后继城市的搜索范围;最后引入2-opt局部搜索策略。对城市规模从50到高达1 000的TSP问题进行仿真,并与先前提出的改进蚁群算法进行对比,结果表明,该算法不仅偏离率更小,而且运行时间短。随着城市规模的增大,优势更明显。
