  • Abstract
    A niche ant colony algorithm (NACA) for multi-modal function optimization, which bases on principle of ant colony algorithm, is devised. It adopts real code. By simulation research of the NACA, and comparing with correlative algorithms, the results show that the NACA has advantages, such as easy to select parameters, strong adaptability, and good convergence, and is very suitable for multi-modal functions optimization with searching for multiple optimal solutions or global optimal solutions.
