Single-Query Entropy-Guided Path Planning
Motion planning for robots with many degrees of freedom requires the exploration of an exponentially large configuration space. Single-query motion planners restrict exploration ...

Task-induced symmetry and reduction in kinematic systems with application to needle steering
— Lie group symmetry in a mechanical system can lead to a dimensional reduction in its dynamical equations. Typically, the symmetries that one exploits are intrinsic to the mecha...

Lagrangian dynamics of open multibody systems with generalized holonomic and nonholonomic joints
— Standard methods to model multibody systems are aimed at systems with configuration spaces isomorphic to Rn . This limitation leads to singularities and other artifacts in cas...

Kinodynamic gait planning for full-body humanoid robots
Abstract— This paper proposes the kinodynamic gait planning for humanoid robots where both kinematics and dynamics of the system are considered. We can simultaneously plan both t...

Balancing exploration and exploitation in motion planning
— Computationally efficient motion planning must avoid exhaustive exploration of configuration space. We argue that this can be accomplished most effectively by carefully balan...
