Modeling Human Planning in Maze Orienteering Problems
… I focused on modeling human planning in Maze Orienteering Problems (MOP), an optimization problem with the objective to maximize collected rewards within a time limit in a partially known maze. The project has two main components: developing planning algorithms to find approximate solutions to …

Algorithms on Clustering, Orienteering, and Conflict -Free Coloring
In the last part, we present randomized algorithms for online conflict-free coloring of points in the plane, with respect to intervals, halfplanes, congruent disks, and nearly-equal axis-parallel rectangles. In all these cases, the coloring algorithms use O(log n) colors, with high probability. We …

The Traveling Salesman Problem and orienteering for kinodynamic vehicles
The Traveling Salesman Problem is a major foundational problem in the fields of Computer Science, Operations Research, and Applied Mathematics, in which an agent wants to visit a set of target points with the shortest path possible. This problem is of the highest interest both theoretically in …

Map position finding accuracy in a computer simulated environment
… is also the basic skill required for successful orienteering. At Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University orienteering exercises aid in building students map position finding skills. Unfortunately, the outdoor nature of orienteering limits classroom use. Bad weather, lack of suitable …

Senses of Darkness: An Exploration of Blind Navigation Through Architecture
… the principle of sequential lessons for teaching orienteering, the program is a center that teaches navigation to people who are blind, located in the remains of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. Through the use of materials, light, and this program of sequential …

UNDERSEA LOGISTICS: ROUTING OPTIMIZATION IN GRAY ZONE ENVIRONMENTS
… time-synchronized systems via a multiple-path orienteering problem. We extend that model to an undersea logistics problem in a contested environment, with heuristics to approximate global solutions. A successful model provides feasible solutions to a simple scenario for proof of concept and …

Modeling trustworthy behavior and limiting the impact of selfishness
… We introduce the Prize Collecting Multiagent Orienteering Problem (PCMOP), a Game Theoretic version of the Orienteering Problem with applications to ride-sharing. We show it to be part of the class of valid utility games, then propose and analyze three policies for mitigating selfish behavior …

Engaging Students in 21st Century Skills through Non-Formal Learning
… designed non-formal learning experience of orienteering. The study also described what characterizes a viable non-formal learning experience facilitating student engagement in 21st century skills. Analysis of data revealed the non-formal learning experience of orienteering engages students …

Automated planning for hydrothermal vent prospecting using AUVs
… planners, together with an orienteering problem (OP) correction that can be used with either planner. Information lookahead applies online POMDP methods to the problem, and was found to be effective in locating vents even with small lookahead values. The best of the …

Training Wayfinding: Natural Movement In Mixed Reality
… a scaling factor of 1 to 15,000 is common in orienteering maps, and 1 to 25,000 in military maps. Rehearsal time spent in the MR condition varied widely, some of which could be blamed on an issue referred to as "avatar excursions", a system anomaly that should be addressed in future research. …
