AI Technical Summary
Existing CBS algorithms suffer from insufficient directionality in high-level search, low efficiency in conflict splitting, and high overhead in low-level search in cross-regional scheduling scenarios in spinning workshops. This results in low efficiency in AGV path planning and a tendency for node conflicts and deadlocks.
An improved conflict search algorithm is adopted, which selects the candidate node set through high-level optimization factors, expands the node with the smallest heuristic function value, and uses an adaptive bounded suboptimal A* algorithm to plan the path for a single AGV at the low level. A dynamic relaxation factor is introduced to control the greediness of the search and prioritizes the handling of key conflicts and constraints.
It effectively reduces the expansion of invalid nodes, improves the efficiency of path replanning, significantly reduces computation time, and alleviates the problems of vehicle collisions and local deadlocks in narrow channels, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the AGV system.
