description In this paper, a multi-strategy enhanced chimpanzee optimization algorithm (MSEChOA) acting on path planning for delivery vehicles is proposed to achieve the goal of shortening global path lengths for the delivery unmanned vehicles and obtaining safer paths. In the initialization phase, the algorithm introduces a hybrid good point set and chaos initialization strategy, combining the advantages of both to enhance the randomness and homogeneity of the initial population. After that, it incorporates a benchmark weight strategy and Gaussian-modulated cosine factor to adaptively adjust algorithm parameters, thus balancing the global and local search capabilities and improving the search efficiency. In the end, the algorithm incorporates a global search enhancer (GEE) to further enhance the global search capability in the later phases, thereby avoiding local optima. Experiments on several benchmark test functions show that MSEChOA outperforms traditional ChOA and other optimization algorithms in optimization accuracy and convergence speed. In simulation experiments, MSEChOA shows stronger path planning ability and good computational efficiency in both simple and complex environments, proving its feasibility and superiority in the field of path planning.
