In this paper, an improved differential search (DS) algorithm was proposed to solve the trajectory planning problem. The DS algorithm is a new kind of evolutionary algorithm that develops rapidly recently. However, slow convergence speed and easily trapping into local optimum of the DS algorithm are...
