Main Methods:

  • Proposing a hybrid firefly-whale optimization algorithm (FWOA).
  • Incorporating multi-population and opposite-based learning into the FWOA.
  • Testing FWOA on 23 benchmark functions for optimization and MRPP.

Main Results:

  • FWOA demonstrated superior performance compared to ten other classical metaheuristic algorithms.
  • The Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) component showed remarkable convergence speed and exploration capability.
  • FWOA proved to be a strong competitor against state-of-the-art metaheuristic algorithms.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed FWOA effectively optimizes mobile robot path planning.
  • FWOA offers a robust solution for finding optimal paths in complex environments.
  • The hybrid approach balances exploration and exploitation, leading to enhanced performance.
