Title: Recent progress of ant colony optimization and its applications
Abstract: As a new form of Artificial Intelligence,Swarm Intelligence is becoming a hot domain in Artificial Intelligence and relevant fields. In this paper,the ant colony optimization algorithm,an important research domain of Swarm Intelligence,is discussed in detail.Firstly,the initial ant colony algorithm,Ant System,is introduced,the problems in Ant System are pointed out and the recent solutions described.Then,the recent applications of the ant colony algorithm in discrete optimization,data mining and other field are summarized.Finally,the expectations of the development of the ant colony algorithm are proposed.
