The paper proposes novel sampling strategies to compute the optimal path alteration of a surface vessel sailing in close quarters. Such strategy directly encodes the rules for safe navigation at sea, by exploiting the concept of minimal ship domain to determine the compliant region where the path deviation is to be generated. The sampling strategy is integrated within the optimal rapidly-exploring random tree algorithm, which minimizes the length of the path deviation. Further, the feasibility of the path with respect to the steering characteristics of own ship is verified by ensuring that the position of the new waypoints respects the minimum turning radius of the vessel. The proposed sampling strategy brings a significant performance improvement both in terms of optimal cost, computational speed and convergence rate.

The paper presents a path planning algorithm based on RRT* that addresses the risk of grounding during evasive manoeuvres to avoid collision. The planner achieves this objective by integrating a collective navigation experience with the systematic us
e of water depth information from the electronic navigational chart. Multivariate kernel density estimation is applied to historical AIS data to generate a probabilistic model describing seafarers best practices while sailing in confined waters. This knowledge is then encoded into the RRT* cost function to penalize path deviations that would lead own ship to sail in shallow waters. Depth contours satisfying the own ship draught define the actual navigable area, and triangulation of this non-convex region is adopted to enable uniform sampling. This ensures the optimal path deviation.
We design and experimentally evaluate a hybrid safe-by-construction collision avoidance controller for autonomous vehicles. The controller combines into a single architecture the respective advantages of an adaptive controller and a discrete safe con
troller. The adaptive controller relies on model predictive control to achieve optimal efficiency in nominal conditions. The safe controller avoids collision by applying two different policies, for nominal and out-of-nominal conditions, respectively. We present design principles for both the adaptive and the safe controller and show how each one can contribute in the hybrid architecture to improve performance, road occupancy and passenger comfort while preserving safety. The experimental results confirm the feasibility of the approach and the practical relevance of hybrid controllers for safe and efficient driving.
This paper considers the problem of robot motion planning in a workspace with obstacles for systems with uncertain 2nd-order dynamics. In particular, we combine closed form potential-based feedback controllers with adaptive control techniques to guar
antee the collision-free robot navigation to a predefined goal while compensating for the dynamic model uncertainties. We base our findings on sphere world-based configuration spaces, but extend our results to arbitrary star-shaped environments by using previous results on configuration space transformations. Moreover, we propose an algorithm for extending the control scheme to decentralized multi-robot systems. Finally, extensive simulation results verify the theoretical findings.
Formation and collision avoidance abilities are essential for multi-agent systems. Conventional methods usually require a central controller and global information to achieve collaboration, which is impractical in an unknown environment. In this pape
r, we propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) based distributed formation control scheme for autonomous vehicles. A modified stream-based obstacle avoidance method is applied to smoothen the optimal trajectory, and onboard sensors such as Lidar and antenna arrays are used to obtain local relative distance and angle information. The proposed scheme obtains a scalable distributed control policy which jointly optimizes formation tracking error and average collision rate with local observations. Simulation results demonstrate that our method outperforms two other state-of-the-art algorithms on maintaining formation and collision avoidance.
Sampling-based motion planning algorithms such as RRT* are well-known for their ability to quickly find an initial solution and then converge to the optimal solution asymptotically. However, the convergence rate can be slow for highdimensional planni
ng problems, particularly for dynamical systems where the sampling space is not just the configuration space but the full state space. In this paper, we introduce the idea of using a partial-final-state-free (PFF) optimal controller in kinodynamic RRT* [1] to reduce the dimensionality of the sampling space. Instead of sampling the full state space, the proposed accelerated kinodynamic RRT*, called Kino-RRT*, only samples part of the state space, while the rest of the states are selected by the PFF optimal controller. We also propose a delayed and intermittent update of the optimal arrival time of all the edges in the RRT* tree to decrease the computation complexity of the algorithm. We tested the proposed algorithm using 4-D and 10-D state-space linear systems and showed that Kino-RRT* converges much faster than the kinodynamic RRT* algorithm.
