The Inverse Solution Algorithm and Trajectory Error Analysis of Robotic Arm Based on MQACA-RBF Network by Xu Cheng, Ming Zhao

“…In order to improve the position accuracy and trajectory accuracy of a 6R robotic arm, a robot arm inverse solution algorithm based on the MQACA- (improved quantum ant colony-) RBF network is proposed. This algorithm establishes the prediction model through the neural network and uses the quantum ant colony algorithm to optimize the output weight. …”

Production-Distribution of Perishable Food considering Customer Time Window by Weibin Feng, Shangcheng Du, Yanli Xiao, Xiangyang Ren

“…Aiming at the production-distribution problem of perishable food, considering the interference caused by the change of the customer’s time window in actual distribution process, using the ideas of disruption management, analyzing the disturbance of the interference event to the production-distribution system, and constructing the perishable food production-distribution problem disturbance identification and disturbance measurement, and with the minimum deviation between the new scheme and the original scheme as the goal, a mathematical model of disturbance recovery is established. An improved ant colony algorithm-mixed ant colony algorithm based on the change of customer time window for perishable food production-distribution problem was designed to solve the problem. …”
