Imposing Hard Constraints on Soft Snakes
An approach is presented for imposing generic hard constraints on deformable models at a low computational cost, while preserving the good convergence properties of snake-like mod...

Nonlinear rescaling vs. smoothing technique in convex optimization
We introduce an alternative to the smoothing technique approach for constrained optimization. As it turns out for any given smoothing function there exists a modification with part...

Multi-model motion tracking under multiple team member actuators
Autonomous robots need to track objects. Object tracking relies on predefined robot motion and sensory models. Tracking is particularly challenging if the robots can actuate on th...

An Incremental Harmonic Function-based Probabilistic Roadmap Approach to Robot Path Planning
— A new hybrid motion planning technique based on Harmonic Functions (HF) and Probabilistic Roadmaps (PRM) is presented. The proposed approach consists of incrementally building ...

Path planning using learned constraints and preferences
— In this paper we present a novel method for robot path planning based on learning motion patterns. A motion pattern is defined as the path that results from applying a set of ...
