Abstract :
The logistics location problem is important in our daily life. Drawing lessons from the properties of randomness and stable tendency of a normal cloud model, the paper proposed an improved Artificial Bee Colony algorithm, Cloud model-based Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm (CABC), through using positive cloud generator to generate the parameters Artificial Bee Colony algorithm needed. The function test showed that CABC has better performance than the basic Artificial Bee Colony algorithm. Then CABC was used to solve the logistics location problem after discretization. Simulation results showed that it could solve this kind of problems better than the other algorithm. And this phenomenon has important reality meaning.
