Sampling in the space of controls or actions is a well-established method for ensuring feasible local motion plans. However, as mobile robots advance in performance and competence ...
— The Tunnel-MILP algorithm is a three stage path planning method for 2-D environments that relies on the identification of a sequence of convex polygons to form an obstacle fre...
