This paper introduces Chance Constrained Gaussian Process-Motion Planning (CCGP-MP), a motion planning algorithm for robotic systems under motion and state estimate uncertainties. The papers key idea is to capture the variations in the distance-to-collision measurements caused by the uncertainty in state estimation techniques using a Gaussian Process (GP) model. We formulate the planning problem as a chance constraint problem and propose a deterministic constraint that uses the modeled distance function to verify the chance-constraints. We apply Simplicial Homology Global Optimization (SHGO) approach to find the global minimum of the deterministic constraint function along the trajectory and use the minimum value to verify the chance-constraints. Under this formulation, we can show that the optimization function is smooth under certain conditions and that SHGO converges to the global minimum. Therefore, CCGP-MP will always guarantee that all points on a planned trajectory satisfy the given chance-constraints. The experiments in this paper show that CCGP-MP can generate paths that reduce collisions and meet optimality criteria under motion and state uncertainties. The implementation of our robot models and path planning algorithm can be found on GitHub.

Motion planning under uncertainty is of significant importance for safety-critical systems such as autonomous vehicles. Such systems have to satisfy necessary constraints (e.g., collision avoidance) with potential uncertainties coming from either dis
turbed system dynamics or noisy sensor measurements. However, existing motion planning methods cannot efficiently find the robust optimal solutions under general nonlinear and non-convex settings. In this paper, we formulate such problem as chance-constrained Gaussian belief space planning and propose the constrained iterative Linear Quadratic Gaussian (CILQG) algorithm as a real-time solution. In this algorithm, we iteratively calculate a Gaussian approximation of the belief and transform the chance-constraints. We evaluate the effectiveness of our method in simulations of autonomous driving planning tasks with static and dynamic obstacles. Results show that CILQG can handle uncertainties more appropriately and has faster computation time than baseline methods.
We present a neural network collision checking heuristic, ClearanceNet, and a planning algorithm, CN-RRT. ClearanceNet learns to predict separation distance (minimum distance between robot and workspace) with respect to a workspace. CN-RRT then effic
iently computes a motion plan by leveraging three key features of ClearanceNet. First, CN-RRT explores the space by expanding multiple nodes at the same time, processing batches of thousands of collision checks. Second, CN-RRT adaptively relaxes its clearance requirements for more difficult problems. Third, to repair errors, CN-RRT shifts its nodes in the direction of ClearanceNets gradient and repairs any residual errors with a traditional RRT, thus maintaining theoretical probabilistic completeness guarantees. In configuration spaces with up to 30 degrees of freedom, ClearanceNet achieves 845x speedup over traditional collision detection methods, while CN-RRT accelerates motion planning by up to 42% over a baseline and finds paths up to 36% more efficient. Experiments on an 11 degree of freedom robot in a cluttered environment confirm the methods feasibility on real robots.
Traditional motion planning is computationally burdensome for practical robots, involving extensive collision checking and considerable iterative propagation of cost values. We present a novel neural network architecture which can directly generate t
he cost-to-go (c2g) function for a given configuration space and a goal configuration. The output of the network is a continuous function whose gradient in configuration space can be directly used to generate trajectories in motion planning without the need for protracted iterations or extensive collision checking. This higher order function (i.e. a function generating another function) representation lies at the core of our motion planning architecture, c2g-HOF, which can take a workspace as input, and generate the cost-to-go function over the configuration space map (C-map). Simulation results for 2D and 3D environments show that c2g-HOF can be orders of magnitude faster at execution time than methods which explore the configuration space during execution. We also present an implementation of c2g-HOF which generates trajectories for robot manipulators directly from an overhead image of the workspace.
Online generation of collision free trajectories is of prime importance for autonomous navigation. Dynamic environments, robot motion and sensing uncertainties adds further challenges to collision avoidance systems. This paper presents an approach fo
r collision avoidance in dynamic environments, incorporating robot and obstacle state uncertainties. We derive a tight upper bound for collision probability between robot and obstacle and formulate it as a motion planning constraint which is solvable in real time. The proposed approach is tested in simulation considering mobile robots as well as quadrotors to demonstrate that successful collision avoidance is achieved in real time application. We also provide a comparison of our approach with several state-of-the-art methods.
Reliable real-time planning for robots is essential in todays rapidly expanding automated ecosystem. In such environments, traditional methods that plan by relaxing constraints become unreliable or slow-down for kinematically constrained robots. This
paper describes the algorithm Dynamic Motion Planning Networks (Dynamic MPNet), an extension to Motion Planning Networks, for non-holonomic robots that address the challenge of real-time motion planning using a neural planning approach. We propose modifications to the training and planning networks that make it possible for real-time planning while improving the data efficiency of training and trained models generalizability. We evaluate our model in simulation for planning tasks for a non-holonomic robot. We also demonstrate experimental results for an indoor navigation task using a Dubins car.
