While the capabilities of robots have improved significantly over the past decades, they are not always able to reliably and ...

Abstract: Autonomous vehicles require highly reliable collision-free capabilities, necessitating extensive research in path planning. Path planning determines an optimal path, crucial for safe and ...

Shortest path algorithms sit at the heart of modern graph theory and many of the systems that move people, data, and goods around the world. After nearly seventy years of relying on the same classic ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the shortest path planning of unmanned surface vehicles (USV) in complicated marine environments. A novel path planning method called “sunlight algorithm” is first ...
