A novel hybrid grey wolf optimizer algorithm for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) path planning

Abstract

Abstract Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) path planning problem is an important component of UAV mission planning system, which needs to obtain optimal route in the complicated field. To solve this problem, a novel hybrid algorithm called HSGWO-MSOS is proposed by combining simplified grey wolf optimizer (SGWO) and modified symbiotic organisms search (MSOS). In the proposed algorithm, the exploration and exploitation abilities are combined efficiently. The phase of the GWO algorithm is simplified to accelerate the convergence rate and retain the exploration ability of the population. The commensalism phase of the SOS algorithm is modified and synthesized with the GWO to improve the exploitation ability. In addition, the convergence analysis of the proposed HSGWO-MSOS algorithm is presented based on the method of linear difference equation. The cubic B-spline curve is used to smooth the generated flight route and make the planning path be suitable for the UAV. The simulation experimental results show that the HSGWO-MSOS algorithm can acquire a feasible and effective route successfully, and its performance is superior to the GWO, SOS and SA algorithm.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
