Background
With the vigorous development of high and new technologies such as artificial intelligence and the internet of things, the ship is highly valued by researchers as a carrier widely applied to cargo circulation, military cruising and public traffic. Because the motion of the ship is different from land and air vehicles, the ship is greatly influenced by the environment, and a great deal of uncertainty and risk exist in navigation. In order to realize the normal navigation of the ship, two key problems of global track planning and local risk collision avoidance of the ship need to be solved.
For the global track planning problem, various algorithms are currently applied to the research of autonomous navigation of ships, such as Dijkstra algorithm, a-x algorithm, artificial potential field method, particle swarm optimization algorithm, ant colony optimization algorithm, and the like. However, these classical offline methods need to acquire complete environment prior knowledge in advance, which is currently difficult to be completely realized, and meanwhile, the difficulty of environment modeling is increased, so that the method is not suitable for real-time autonomous navigation of a ship when used alone.
For the problem of local risk collision avoidance, the mainstream method focuses on modeling the environment in real time. For example, complexity clustering is performed by analyzing obstacle information in a certain range of a ship body, dynamic obstacle avoidance is realized by combining an ant colony optimization algorithm, the method has excellent performance on obstacle avoidance, and when a starting point is far away from a target, redundant tracks are easily generated. Other researchers weaken the complexity of environment modeling by adopting a trial and error method, take the influence of sea stormy waves into consideration, and provide an autonomous navigation algorithm based on Q-learning, so that intelligent collision avoidance of the robot in an unknown environment is realized; an artificial potential field method is introduced to the Q-learning algorithm, so that the convergence speed of the Q-learning algorithm is further improved. However, the grid-based Q-learning algorithm is greatly affected by the size of the water area, and autonomous navigation in a large water area will increase track randomness, which is not favorable for track convergence.

and judging whether the barrier information is in a safe area of the ship, if so, generating a corresponding real-time risk collision avoidance strategy based on the barrier information, and carrying out risk avoidance according to the real-time risk collision avoidance strategy, otherwise, adjusting the course of the ship to navigate to a current target point, and continuously monitoring whether the barrier information is in the safe area of the ship.
And after the global track planning and the local risk collision avoidance strategy planning are completed, the connection between the model parameters is properly adjusted according to the difference of the actual model by combining the global track planning and the local risk collision avoidance strategy. Based on a ship model, the collision-free autonomous navigation from a starting point to a terminal point can be completed under the condition of acquiring the prior knowledge of a map of a navigation water area, and the specific flow is as follows:
s41, inputting a starting point and a target point, and starting an algorithm;
s42, starting from the position of the starting point, obtaining an intermediate node passing from the starting point to the end point through a global track planning algorithm, setting the intermediate node as a child target point, and keeping the sequence of passing unchanged;
s43, detecting the obstacle information in the navigation area through the ship sensing system, and if the current target point is reached, entering the step S46; if the judgment is dangerous, the step S44 is carried out; if it is determined to be safe, the process proceeds to step S45;

and S47, finishing the algorithm and outputting the running track of the ship.
According to the ship autonomous navigation model, the original map is preprocessed by adopting edge extraction, convex hull extraction and convex polygon fitting methods, so that large obstacles are simplified, small obstacles are filtered, an MAKLINK global connection diagram is constructed, and a water area environment model is simplified; the traditional Dijkstra algorithm and the ant colony optimization algorithm are combined on the global flight path planning, so that the global flight path tends to be shortest, the redundancy of paths is reduced, and the transportation efficiency and the economic benefit of a ship are facilitated; correspondingly, the local real-time risk collision avoidance needs to consider the small-sized obstacles filtered out from the original map and the collision avoidance of the unidentified obstacles, so that a Q-learning algorithm is introduced to the local risk collision avoidance, a collision avoidance strategy is learned through interaction with the environment, and the effect of further reducing the difficulty of environment modeling is achieved. By combining global track planning and a local risk collision avoidance strategy, the model realizes collision-free autonomous navigation from a starting point to a terminal point of a ship, so that the model can be applied to digital construction of large-scale ports.
1. The ship autonomous navigation model based on the ant colony optimization algorithm and Q-learning makes up for the method in the background art, and only needs less environment priori knowledge to overcome the defect that real-time collision avoidance cannot be realized for the submerged reef which is not identified by the map in the water area, thereby reducing the modeling difficulty.
2. Compared with the prior art mentioned in the background art, the ship autonomous navigation model based on the ant colony optimization algorithm and the Q-learning has the advantages that complex modeling of obstacles by a ship is not needed in real time, the requirement on a ship sensing system is low, the sensing systems with different functional conditions can establish a state set suitable for the functional conditions of the ship and learn according to different types of acquired information, and certain universality is achieved.
3. The traditional Q-learning algorithm is applied to the problems of large state space, low convergence speed and large randomness of planned flight paths in a grid map, and the artificial potential field method mentioned in the background art as a reward strategy still cannot well solve the problems as value guidance. The ship autonomous navigation model based on the ant colony optimization algorithm and Q-learning provided by the invention not only reserves high degree of freedom of navigation caused by a grid method on local obstacle avoidance, but also ensures that the global navigation track always tends to be shortest, and is beneficial to improving the transportation efficiency and economic benefit of ships.
Based on the above reasons, the ship autonomous navigation model based on the ant colony optimization algorithm and Q-learning provided by the invention can provide effective reference for ship autonomous navigation control.
In order to check the effectiveness of the ship autonomous navigation model based on the ant colony optimization algorithm and Q-learning, verification experiments are respectively set in the embodiment to test the performance of the model.

As shown in fig. 6a, after 100 learning cycles, the algorithm has substantially converged and has the ability to avoid obstacles independently in the local area shown in fig. 6 b.
The ship autonomous navigation model based on the ant colony optimization algorithm and Q-learning provided by the invention is subjected to verification simulation experiments in two different original water domains. In fig. 7a, the track can be roughly divided into 6 sections, in the 5 th section of the track, after the ship detects the surrounding obstacles, the navigation track is adjusted to bypass the obstacles, after the danger is eliminated, the track is adjusted again to sail towards the current target point, and finally the collision-free navigation from the starting point to the target point is realized. In fig. 7b, similar effects are achieved by changing the positions of the starting point and the target point.
