Path Planning of Mobile Robot Based on Genetic Bee Colony Algorithm

In order to solve the problem of global path planning for mobile robot, a global optimization algorithm based on genetic bee colony algorithm is proposed. This algorithm is combining the global optimization strategy of the genetic algorithm and artificial bee colony algorithm. The improved crossover and mutation operator are introduced into the algorithm to increase the diversity of food source, effectively avoiding the swarm into local optimum, improving the ability of search for the food source. Besides, a strategy of adaptive selection has ability to search the optimal food source. A large number of the experiment and comparative analysis are carried out by using grid method in this paper. Experimental results show that this method has high precision and fast convergence speed, and it is an effective method for path planning.
