For the simplest version of Theta*, the main loop is much the same as that of A*. The only difference is the _ function. Compared to A*, the parent of a node in Theta* does not have to be a neighbor of the node as long as there is a line-of-sight between the two nodes.
Real-Time Path Planning is a term used in robotics that consists of motion planning methods that can adapt to real time changes in the environment. This includes everything from primitive algorithms that stop a robot when it approaches an obstacle to more complex algorithms that continuously takes in information from the surroundings and creates a plan to avoid obstacles.
Any-angle path planning algorithms are pathfinding algorithms that search for a Euclidean shortest path between two points on a grid map while allowing the turns in the path to have any angle. The result is a path that cuts directly through open areas and has relatively few turns. [ 1 ]
D* a family of incremental heuristic search algorithms for problems in which constraints vary over time or are not completely known when the agent first plans its path; Any-angle path planning algorithms, a family of algorithms for planning paths that are not restricted to move along the edges in the search graph, designed to be able to take on ...
A configuration describes the pose of the robot, and the configuration space C is the set of all possible configurations. For example: If the robot is a single point (zero-sized) translating in a 2-dimensional plane (the workspace), C is a plane, and a configuration can be represented using two parameters (x, y).
The plan is a trajectory from start to goal and describes, for each moment in time and each position in the map, the robot's next action. Path planning is solved by many different algorithms, which can be categorised as sampling-based and heuristics-based approaches. Before path planning, the map is discretized into a grid. The vector ...
Further, in planning with rational or real time, the state space may be infinite, unlike in classical planning or planning with integer time. Temporal planning is closely related to scheduling problems when uncertainty is involved and can also be understood in terms of timed automata. The Simple Temporal Network with Uncertainty (STNU) is a ...
A central problem in algorithmic graph theory is the shortest path problem. Hereby, the problem of finding the shortest path between every pair of nodes is known as all-pair-shortest-paths (APSP) problem. As sequential algorithms for this problem often yield long runtimes, parallelization has shown to be beneficial in this field. In this ...
