Abstract

In this paper, an adaptive optimization system is established In order to improve the global ability of basic ant colony algorithm, a novel ant colony algorithm which is based on adaptively adjusting pheromone decay parameter has been proposed, and it has been proved that for a sufficiently large number of iterations, the probability of finding the global best solution tends to 1 The simulations for TSP problem show that the improved ant colony algorithm can find better routes than basic ant colony algorithm.
