Incremental geometric robot motion planning
… the notion of incremental problems in geometric robot motion planning, and give incremental algorithms to solve these problems efficiently. In particular, we present incremental algorithms to compute an exact cell decomposition of the collision-free portion of the robot configuration space for a …

Algorithms for Rectangular Robot Motion Planning
<p>With the proliferation of robot deployment in large-scale operations, such as warehouse management and manufacturing, there is an increasing need for multi-robot motion planning solutions. The basic multi-robot motion planning problem is to decide whether robots can translate from given start …

Robot Motion Planning With Visual Constraints
A computational approach to do motion planning on the ${\cal PCM}$ is developed. A modular multi-resolution grid representation is used to represent the ${\cal PCM}.$ Combined with a flexible multi-strategy search, this representation results in a hierarchical planner which is capable of generating …

Fast numerical algorithms for optimal robot motion planning
… autonomous tasks requires solving the optimal motion planning problem for a mobile robot. For example, to reach the desired destination on time, a self-driving car must quickly navigate streets and avoid hazardous obstacles such as buildings or other cars, as well as provide safety for …

Geometric planning for VLSI routing and robot motion
This thesis proposes a decomposition-based algorithmic paradigm, called planning with local experts, where the given global planning problem is decomposed into a set of subproblems that are each solved efficiently in a prescribed sequence and then the solutions of the subproblems are merged …

INFORMED EXPLORATION ALGORITHMS FOR ROBOT MOTION PLANNING AND LEARNING
… emerged as a promising technique for solving robot motion-planning problems. These algorithms avoid a priori discretization of the search-space by generating random samples and building a graph online. While the recent advances in this area endow these randomized planners with asymptotic …

Robot motion planning with contact from global pseudo-inverse map
In the robot motion planning problems, environment and its objects are often treated as obstacles to be avoided. However, there are situations where contacting with the environment is not costly. Moreover, in many cases, making contact can actually help a robot to maneuver around to reach a goal …

Robot Motion Planning for Tracking and Capturing Adversarial, Cooperative and Independent Targets
The last ten years have seen robots become smaller, lighter and more maneuverable than ever before, paving the way for their use in the service sector, and even in our homes. A key aspect that elevates a network of robots over a bed of sensors is the ability of individual units to autonomously …

Movement theory inspired robot motion strategies and design of a bipedal walker
… movement behaviors are investigated for robot systems by modeling them as sequentially evolving state machines, motivated by choreographed human movements, where states define poses at particular instants. Here, tools from formal theory help in producing high-level movement behaviors by …
