In this paper, we develop a non-uniform sampling approach for fast and efficient path planning of autonomous vehicles. The approach uses a novel non-uniform partitioning scheme that divides the area into obstacle-free convex cells. The partitioning results in large cells in obstacle-free areas and small cells in obstacle-dense areas. Subsequently, the boundaries of these cells are used for sampling; thus significantly reducing the burden of uniform sampling. When compared with a standard uniform sampler, this smart sampler significantly 1) reduces the size of the sampling space while providing completeness and optimality guarantee, 2) provides sparse sampling in obstacle-free regions and dense sampling in obstacle-rich regions to facilitate faster exploration, and 3) eliminates the need for expensive collision-checking with obstacles due to the convexity of the cells. This sampling framework is incorporated into the RRT* path planner. The results show that RRT* with the non-uniform sampler gives a significantly better convergence rate and smaller memory footprint as compared to RRT* with a uniform sampler.
This paper presents a deep-learning based CPP algorithm, called Coverage Path Planning Network (CPPNet). CPPNet is built using a convolutional neural network (CNN) whose input is a graph-based representation of the occupancy grid map while its output
A new belief space planning algorithm, called covariance steering Belief RoadMap (CS-BRM), is introduced, which is a multi-query algorithm for motion planning of dynamical systems under simultaneous motion and observation uncertainties. CS-BRM extend

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
