蚁群算法（Ant Colony Optimization, ACO）

简介

蚁群算法（Ant Colony Optimization, ACO）是一种基于自然启发的优化算法，由意大利学者马可·多里戈（Marco Dorigo）在1992年首次提出。它受自然界中蚂蚁觅食行为的启发，用于解决离散优化问题。

在自然界中，蚂蚁通过释放和追踪一种化学物质（即信息素）找到最短路径。蚁群算法通过模拟这种信息素的机制，在优化问题中迭代寻找近似最优解。

代码说明

距离矩阵：distance_matrix 是问题的输入，表示城市之间的距离。
信息素更新：信息素会随时间蒸发，并根据路径长度进行强化。
路径构建：每只蚂蚁根据概率选择下一步的城市，概率由信息素和启发式因子共同决定。
运行结果：输出最佳路径和对应路径长度。
