Based on the basic model of ant colony clustering algorithm, LF, an improved ant colony clustering algorithm (IACC) is proposed. The constructing method, the colony similarity, and the behavior of the ant are redefined. A new adaptive parameter adjustment strategy is also presented in this paper. Experimental results on clustering benchmarks indicate that the proposed algorithm has better performance than LF. It overcomes LF's shortcomings of lower convergence speed and longer iteration cycles.
