| Summary: | We propose the adaptive t-distribution spiral search Dung Beetle Optimization (TSDBO) Algorithm to address the limitations of the vanilla Dung Beetle Optimization Algorithm (DBO), such as vulnerability to local optima, weak convergence speed, and poor convergence accuracy. Specifically, we introduced an improved Tent chaotic mapping-based population initialization method to enhance the distribution quality of the initial population in the search space. Additionally, we employed a dynamic spiral search strategy during the reproduction phase and an adaptive t-distribution perturbation strategy during the foraging phase to enhance global search efficiency and the capability of escaping local optima. Experimental results demonstrate that TSDBO exhibits significant improvements in all aspects compared to other modified algorithms across 12 benchmark tests. Furthermore, we validated the practicality and reliability of TSDBO in robotic path planning applications, where it shortened the shortest path by 5.5–7.2% on a 10 × 10 grid and by 11.9–14.6% on a 20 × 20 grid. |
