Abstract

Ant colony optimization algorithm (ACO) is a good method to solve complex multi-stage decision problems. But this algorithm is easy to fall into the local minimum points and has slowly convergence speed, According to the semantic relations, an improved ant colony algorithm has been proposed in this paper. In contrast with the tradition algorithm, the improved algorithm is added with a new operator to update crucial parameters. The new operator is to find out the potential semantic relations behind the history information based on ontology technology. Ant colony optimization can be applied to many engineering fields,taking the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) as example, Our experiments show accuracy of improved ant colony algorithm that is superior to that obtained by the other classical versions, and competitive or better than the results achieved by the compared algorithm, this improved algorithm also can improve the searching efficiency.
