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 planning 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.

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 t o 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.
We present Kinodynamic RRT*, an incremental sampling-based approach for asymptotically optimal motion planning for robots with linear differential constraints. Our approach extends RRT*, which was introduced for holonomic robots (Karaman et al. 2011) , by using a fixed-final-state-free-final-time controller that exactly and optimally connects any pair of states, where the cost function is expressed as a trade-off between the duration of a trajectory and the expended control effort. Our approach generalizes earlier work on extending RRT* to kinodynamic systems, as it guarantees asymptotic optimality for any system with controllable linear dynamics, in state spaces of any dimension. Our approach can be applied to non-linear dynamics as well by using their first-order Taylor approximations. In addition, we show that for the rich subclass of systems with a nilpotent dynamics matrix, closed-form solutions for optimal trajectories can be derived, which keeps the computational overhead of our algorithm compared to traditional RRT* at a minimum. We demonstrate the potential of our approach by computing asymptotically optimal trajectories in three challenging motion planning scenarios: (i) a planar robot with a 4-D state space and double integrator dynamics, (ii) an aerial vehicle with a 10-D state space and linearized quadrotor dynamics, and (iii) a car-like robot with a 5-D state space and non-linear dynamics.
We show how to sketch semidefinite programs (SDPs) using positive maps in order to reduce their dimension. More precisely, we use Johnsonhyp{}Lindenstrauss transforms to produce a smaller SDP whose solution preserves feasibility or approximates the v alue of the original problem with high probability. These techniques allow to improve both complexity and storage space requirements. They apply to problems in which the Schatten 1-norm of the matrices specifying the SDP and also of a solution to the problem is constant in the problem size. Furthermore, we provide some results which clarify the limitations of positive, linear sketches in this setting.

Routing strategies for traffics and vehicles have been historically studied. However, in the absence of considering drivers preferences, current route planning algorithms are developed under ideal situations where all drivers are expected to behave r ationally and properly. Especially, for jumbled urban road networks, drivers actual routing strategies deteriorated to a series of empirical and selfish decisions that result in congestion. Self-evidently, if minimum mobility can be kept, traffic congestion is avoidable by traffic load dispersing. In this paper, we establish a novel dynamic routing method catering drivers preferences and retaining maximum traffic mobility simultaneously through multi-agent systems (MAS). Modeling human-drivers behavior through agents dynamics, MAS can analyze the global behavior of the entire traffic flow. Therefore, regarding agents as particles in smoothed particles hydrodynamics (SPH), we can enforce the traffic flow to behave like a real flow. Thereby, with the characteristic of distributing itself uniformly in road networks, our dynamic routing method realizes traffic load balancing without violating the individual time-saving motivation. Moreover, as a discrete control mechanism, our method is robust to chaos meaning drivers disobedience can be tolerated. As controlled by SPH based density, the only intelligent transportation system (ITS) we require is the location-based service (LBS). A mathematical proof is accomplished to scrutinize the stability of the proposed control law. Also, multiple testing cases are built to verify the effectiveness of the proposed dynamic routing algorithm.
Soft robots promise improved safety and capability over rigid robots when deployed in complex, delicate, and dynamic environments. However, the infinite degrees of freedom and highly nonlinear dynamics of these systems severely complicate their model ing and control. As a step toward addressing this open challenge, we apply the data-driven, Hankel Dynamic Mode Decomposition (HDMD) with time delay observables to the model identification of a highly inertial, helical soft robotic arm with a high number of underactuated degrees of freedom. The resulting model is linear and hence amenable to control via a Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR). Using our test bed device, a dynamic, lightweight pneumatic fabric arm with an inertial mass at the tip, we show that the combination of HDMD and LQR allows us to command our robot to achieve arbitrary poses using only open loop control. We further show that Koopman spectral analysis gives us a dimensionally reduced basis of modes which decreases computational complexity without sacrificing predictive power.
