The underwater path planning problem deals with finding an optimal or sub-optimal route
between an origin point and a termination point in marine environments. The underwater …

Robotic mapping provides spatial information for autonomous agents. Depending on the
tasks they seek to enable, the maps created range from simple 2D representations of the …

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have recently attracted the attention of researchers due to
their numerous potential civilian applications. However, current robot navigation …

Efficient path-planning algorithms are a crucial issue for modern autonomous underwater
vehicles. Classical path-planning algorithms in artificial intelligence are not designed to deal …

We present an interpolation‐based planning and replanning algorithm for generating low‐
cost paths through uniform and nonuniform resolution grids. Most grid‐based path planners …

We present an interpolation-based planning and replanning algorithm for generating direct,
low-cost paths through nonuniform cost grids. Most grid-based path planners use discrete …

This paper presents a new sensor based global path planner which operates in two steps. In
the first step the safest areas in the environment are extracted by means of a Voronoi …

Introduction We consider the problem of autonomous navigation in an unstructured outdoor
environment. The goal is for a small outdoor robot to come into a new area, learn about and …

We consider the problem of autonomous navigation in an unstructured outdoor environment.
We describe the planning and control aspects of an implemented system that drives a robot …

We present an interpolation-based planning and replanning algorithm that is able to
produce direct, low-cost paths through three-dimensional environments. Our algorithm …
