This study introduces an improved sparrow search algorithm and a novel rescue strategy for digital microfluidic biochip (DMFB) test path planning. The hybrid method significantly enhances efficiency and optimizes test path length, outperforming existing algorithms.

Area of Science:

  • Microfluidics and Bioengineering
  • Artificial Intelligence and Optimization Algorithms

Background:

  • Digital microfluidic biochips (DMFBs) are crucial for diagnostics and experiments, but their reliability hinges on effective online testing.
  • Traditional algorithms for DMFB test path planning struggle with slow convergence and local optima due to complex fluidic constraints.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a hybrid optimization method for efficient online test path planning in DMFBs.
  • To improve the convergence speed and global search capability of algorithms used in DMFB testing.

Main Methods:

  • Proposed a hybrid approach combining a priority strategy with an improved sparrow search algorithm for DMFB test path planning.
  • The improved sparrow search algorithm features tent chaotic mapping, cosine adaptive weights with Elite Opposition-based Learning (EOBL), and Gaussian perturbation.

  • Introduced an intelligent rescue strategy integrating graph-theoretic pathfinding, greedy heuristics, and space-time constraint verification for closed-loop decision-making.

    • Main Results:

    • The proposed algorithm achieved optimal or near-optimal shortest test path lengths on standard 7x7 to 15x15 DMFB benchmark chips.
    • Demonstrated superior performance over existing mainstream algorithms in both offline and online testing scenarios.
    • For a 15x15 chip under online testing, the method reduced path length significantly compared to IPSO and IACA, and decreased standard deviation versus IGWO.

    Conclusions:

    • The hybrid optimization method provides an efficient and effective solution for DMFB online test path planning.
    • The proposed algorithm overcomes limitations of traditional methods, offering better path optimization and reliability for DMFBs.
