Vehicle motion planning using stream functions
– Borrowing a concept from hydrodynamic analysis, this paper presents stream functions which satisfy Laplace’s equation as a local-minima free method for producing potential-ï¬...

Pattern Generation of Biped Walking Constrained on Parametric Surface
— This paper describes a generation method for spatially natural biped walking. By limiting the COG (Center of Gravity) motion space to a sculptured surface, the degree of freedo...

Motion planning for nonlinear systems using hybridizations and robust controllers on simplices
— In this paper, we consider a motion planning problem for a class of constrained nonlinear systems. In each simplex of a triangulation of the set of states, the nonlinear dynami...

An Inexact SQP Method for Equality Constrained Optimization
We present an algorithm for large-scale equality constrained optimization. The method is based on a characterization of inexact sequential quadratic programming (SQP) steps that ca...

An inexact Newton method for nonconvex equality constrained optimization
Abstract We present a matrix-free line search algorithm for large-scale equality constrained optimization that allows for inexact step computations. For sufficiently convex problem...
