Road condition prediction and logistics distribution path optimization algorithm based on traffic big data

Abstract

In view of the complex road conditions in today's cities, the traditional prediction methods for road conditions are not so accurate, and the optimization algorithm for the logistics distribution path is not sensitive to changes in the road conditions so that its application in an actual logistics distribution system is not effective. This article proposes a road condition prediction and logistics distribution path optimization algorithm based on traffic big data. First, it analyses the characteristics of the road condition information of traffic big data. By combining the powerful feature extraction and self-learning ability of a deep belief network, it establishes a road condition prediction model based on a deep belief network and completes the model training and verification through the learning of traffic big data. Then, it combines the road condition prediction (result) information, traffic network information, and logistics distribution information to construct the time-share weighted traffic network. It then modifies the access set and pheromone variables of the ant algorithm based on the time-share traffic network to establish the road condition prediction and logistics distribution path optimization algorithm based on traffic big data. Finally, it conducts comparative experiments with other logistics distribution path optimization algorithms. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to other logistics distribution optimization algorithms. Therefore, this algorithm is an effective method for optimizing logistics distribution.

“…Among existing literature on the transportation problem of engineering materials, studies about the path optimization problem mainly focus on the optimization algorithm [21,22]. The commonly-applied path optimization methods include the shortest path search al-gorithm [23], the ant colony intelligent algorithm [24], the Dijkstra algorithm [25], the Floyd algorithm [26], etc.…”
