Improved Immune Moth-Flame Optimization Based on Gene Correction for Automatic Reverse Parking

During the process of reverse parking, it is difficult to achieve the ideal reference trajectory while avoiding collision. In this study, with the aim of establishing reference trajectory optimization for automatic reverse parking that smooths and shortens the trajectory length and ensures the berthing inclination angle is small enough, an improved immune moth-flame optimization method based on gene correction is proposed. Specifically, based on the standard automatic parking plane system, a reasonable high-quality reference trajectory optimization model for automatic parking is constructed by combining the cubic spline-fitting method and a boundary-crossing solution based on gene correction integrated into moth-flame optimization. To enhance the model's global optimization performance, nonlinear decline strategies, including crossover and variation probability and weight coefficient, and a high-quality solution-set maintenance mechanism based on fusion distance are also designed. Taking garage No.160 of the Dalian Shell Museum located in Dalian, Xinghai Square, as the experimental site, experiments on automatic parking reference trajectory optimization and tracking control were carried out. The results show that the proposed optimization algorithm provides higher accuracy for reference trajectory optimization and can achieve better tracking control of the reference trajectory.
