Popis: | The parameters setting of evaporation rate and initial pheromone value of ant colony optimization are studied in this paper. Theorem 1 shows that the pheromone increment is a value between g(smax) and g(smin), which provides theoretical basis for the setting of the low pheromone bound tau min. The estimation formula of evaporation rate p is given. The results are useful to understanding this algorithm and using it to solve combinatorial optimization problems. Results of simulation experiments testify the effectiveness of the conclusions. |
