Embodiment

[0056] refer to figure 1 , a maximum-minimum ant colony algorithm for a vehicle scheduling problem without a time window includes the following steps:

[0057] Step 1: Determine cost-related cost information: fixed cost c for starting the vehicle, storage cost u for each customer point within the planning period, and fixed cost C for delivery from the distribution center to the customer point f , the unit transportation cost t from the distribution center to the customer point df , The fixed cost C of the delivery operation of the distribution center d , the loading capacity w of each distribution vehicle, and the unit transportation cost t between each customer point ij , the maximum number of iterations K_max of the outer layer of the iterative algorithm;

[0058] Step 2: Get delivery information from the order form. This information includes: customer name, total weight of goods required by the customer D i , the unloading address, the required arrival time, and the es...

Abstract

The invention discloses a maximum-minimum ant colony optimization method and a maximum-minimum ant colony optimization system for solving a vehicle scheduling problem. The maximum-minimum ant colony optimization method comprises the following steps of acquiring address information of a customer according to delivery information in an order ticket; reading relevant information in a maximum-minimum ant colony algorithm; and performing initialization, condition termination judgment, path establishment, path improvement and information updating on the ant colony algorithm. The numerical value of pheromone polatility is changed dynamically, convergence is accelerated, a plurality of paths are searched, global searching capability of the algorithm is improved, and premature and stagnation are avoided. The maximum-minimum ant colony optimization method has the advantages that the method is easy to implement and the rapid convergence capability and the rapid searching capability are high when the method is used for solving a vehicle path problem.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the research field of vehicle scheduling, in particular to an improved maximum-minimum ant colony optimization method and system for vehicle scheduling problems. Background technique [0002] Vehicle routing problem (Vehicle Routing Problem, VRP) can generally be described as: n customers are scattered in a certain area, each has a different quantity of goods demand, a distribution center provides goods to customers, and m vehicles are responsible for distributing goods, The goal of organizing appropriate driving routes is to satisfy the needs of customers, and achieve the goals such as the shortest distance, the smallest cost, and the least time-consuming under certain constraints. The simplest and most classic VRP problem requires that the travel route of each vehicle minimize the total transportation cost, and ensure that each service demand point is visited only once by one of the vehicles. [0003] VRP, also known as the ...
