蚂蚁几乎没有视力,但他们却能够在黑暗的世界中找到食物,而且能够找到一条从洞穴到食物的最短路径。它们是如何做到的呢?

简介

由来

蚁群算法是一种用来寻找优化路径的概率型算法。它由Marco Dorigo于1992年在他的博士论文中提出,其灵感来源于蚂蚁在寻找食物过程中发现路径的行为。

这种算法具有分布计算、信息正反馈和启发式搜索的特征,本质上是进化算法中的一种启发式全局优化算法。

思想

将蚁群算法应用于解决优化问题的基本思路为:用蚂蚁的行走路径表示待优化问题的可行解,整个蚂蚁群体的所有路径构成待优化问题的解空间。路径较短的蚂蚁释放的信息素量较多,随着时间的推进,较短的路径上累积的信息素浓度逐渐增高,选择该路径的蚂蚁个数也愈来愈多。最终,整个蚂蚁会在正反馈的作用下集中到最佳的路径上,此时对应的便是待优化问题的最优解。

应用

蚁群算法应用广泛,如旅行商问题(traveling salesman problem,简称TSP)、指派问题、Job-shop调度问题、车辆路径问题(vehicle routing problem)、图着色问题(graph coloring problem)和网络路由问题(network routing problem)等等,下面以TSP的求解为例。
