| Abstract | Ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm is widely used in the instant delivery order scheduling because of its distributed computing capability. However, the order delivery efficiency decreases when different logistics statuses are faced. In order to improve the performance of ACO, an adaptive ACO algorithm based on real-time logistics features (AACO-RTLFs) is proposed. First, features are extracted from the event dimension, spatial dimension, and time dimension of the instant delivery to describe the real-time logistics status. Five key factors are further selected from the above three features to assist in problem modeling and ACO designing. Second, an adaptive instant delivery model is built considering the customer's acceptable delivery time. The acceptable time is calculated by emergency order mark and weather conditions in the event dimension feature. Third, an adaptive ACO algorithm is proposed to obtain the instant delivery order schedules. The parameters of the probability equation in ACO are adjusted according to the extracted key factors. Finally, the Gurobi solver in Python is used to perform numerical experiments on the classical datasets to verify the effectiveness of the instant delivery model. The proposed AACO-RTLF algorithm shows its advantages in instant delivery order scheduling when compared to the other state-of-the-art algorithms. |
