This paper proposed an adaptive A* Hybrid algorithm combining the advantages of ant colony and A* algorithm. Improvements of the traditional ant-colony algorithm was suggested, and the Target Evaluation Factor based on global dynamic information was introduced to promote the performance of ant path decision. In additional, an adaptive pheromone updating strategy was designed to balance and speed up the convergence rate. Test results showed that this algorithm can effectively guide agents to get an optimal path to ensure the efficient completion of tasks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
