게임 인공지능 분야중 하나인 경로탐색은 좀더 사실적인 게임을 만들기 위한 중요한 요소이다. 경로탐색 시스템은 한정된 자원을 소비해야만 하는 제약사항 때문에 때때로 단순하게 처리되어 사실적이지 못한 경로를 생성하였다. 기존 연구에서는 정적인 지형과 장애물들을 이용하여 자연스럽게 회피하는 경로생성에 집중하였다. 하지만, 게임 공간에서는 다양한 종류의 움직이는 장애물들이 존재한다. 따라서 이러한 움직이는 장애물을 자연스럽게 회피하는 경로를 생성하는 시스템 이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 네비게이션 메시(Navigation Mesh)로 공간을 표현하며 지형의 특성을 고려한 경로 탐색 방법을 적용하고, 움직이는 물체를 회피하기 위하여 지능적인 밀개와 끌개의 방법을 사용하여 경로 탐색을 수행한다. 제안된 시스템을 통하여 생성된 경로를 살펴보고 실제 게임에서의 활용성을 검증한다.

This paper presents a hierarchical fuzzy motion planner for humanoid robots in 3D uneven environments. First, we define both motion primitives and locomotion primitives of humanoid robots. A high-level planner finds a global path from a global navigation map that is generated based on a combination of 2.5 dimensional maps of the workspace. We use a passage map, an obstacle map and a gradient map of obstacles to distinguish obstacles. A mid-level planner creates subgoals that help the robot efficiently cope with various obstacles using only a small set of locomotion primitives that are useful for stable navigation of the robot. We use a local obstacle map to find the subgoals along the global path. A low-level planner searches for an optimal sequence of locomotion primitives between subgoals by using fuzzy motion planning. We verify our approach on a virtual humanoid robot in a simulated environment. Simulation results show a reduction in planning time and the feasibility of the proposed method.

This paper deals with the path-following control for marine surface vehicles with underactuated characteristics. In consideration of practical limitations of actuators, an improved DVS(dynamic virtual ship) guidance algorithm is proposed with the multi-level DVS optionally selected to be tracked. To address the output-feedback control issue, an adaptive FLS(fuzzy logical systems) is devised to online approximate the kinematic states. Based on that observing framework, the path-following control law is thereafter derived. Simulations testify effectiveness of the proposed scheme

In this paper, we propose a local path planning method based on RANGER algorithm and autonomy manager for autonomous navigation of UGV in urban environment. LPP method is designed to generate the local path in sensing area by using lane and curb of pavement and autonomy manager is designed to make a decision which transit the status of LPP component to a proper status for current navigation environment. A field test is conducted with scenarios in real urban environment in which crossroad, crosswalk and pavement are included and the performance of proposed method is validated.

A gradient method can provide a global optimal path in indoor environments. However, the optimal path can be often generated in narrow areas despite a sufficient wide area which lead to safe navigation. This paper presents a novel approach to path planning for safe navigation of a mobile robot. The proposed algorithm extracts empty regions using a ray-casting method and then generates temporary waypoints in wider regions in order to reach the goal fast and safely. The experimental results show that the proposed method can generate paths in the wide regions in most cases and the robot can reach the goal safely at high speeds.

An efficient urban outdoor localization and navigation system is proposed for car-like robots. First an accurate outdoor localization method is suggested using line/arc features and 2.5D map matching with LRFs (Laser Range Finders), which can reduce the number of singular cases and increase accuracy. Also, path generation, path tracking, and path modification algorithms are proposed for navigation. All these algorithms are implemented on an electric scooter to construct an autonomous urban outdoor localization and navigation system. Experiments reveal the practicality of the proposed system.

최근 이동통신 기술의 발전으로 실내에서의 위치 획득 기술이 용이해지면서 실내 내비게이션 시스템에 대한 연구가 각광을 받고 있다. 최적화된 실내 내비게이션은 크고 복잡한 실내에서의 활동을 위해 빠른 경로를 제공한다. 그러나 기존의 실내 내비게이션 알고리즘 연구들에서는 공간 토폴로지 또는 실내 네트워크에 기반하여 대략적인 경로를 도출한다. 본 논문에서는 공간 토폴로지 분석과 실내 내트워크를 통합 분석하여 실내 경로를 계산하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안 알고리즘은 전문적인 실내지도가 아닌 간소화된 실내 지도 데이터를 활용하여 실내 네트워크와 공간 토폴로지의 혼합 분석을 통해 실내 경로의 길이를 줄일 수 있다. 성능평가를 통해 FT-Indoornavi 알고리즘이 기존의 엘라스틱 알고리즘과 iNav 알고리즘보다 더 빨리 실내 경로를 계산할 수 있음을 보여준다.

As a main challenge in network virtualization, virtual network embedding problem is increasingly important and heuristic algorithms are of great interest. Aiming at the problems of poor correlation in node embedding and link embedding, long distance between adjacent virtual nodes and imbalance resource consumption of network components during embedding, we herein propose a two-stage virtual network embedding algorithm NA-PVNM. In node embedding stage, resource requirement and breadth first search algorithm are introduced to sort virtual nodes, and a node fitness function is developed to find the best substrate node. In link embedding stage, a path fitness function is developed to find the best path in which available bandwidth, CPU and path length are considered. Simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm could shorten link embedding distance, increase the acceptance ratio and revenue to cost ratio compared to previously reported algorithms. We also analyzed the impact of position constraint and substrate network attribute on algorithm performance, as well as the utilization of the substrate network resources during embedding via simulation. The results showed that, under the constraint of substrate resource distribution and virtual network requests, the critical factor of improving success ratio is to reduce resource consumption during embedding.

In this paper, we present one approach to achieve safe navigation in indoor dynamic environment. So far, there have been various useful collision avoidance algorithms and path planning schemes. However, those algorithms have a fundamental limitation that the robot can avoid only "visible" obstacles. In real environment, it is not possible to detect all the dynamic obstacles around the robot. There exist a lot of "occluded" regions due to the limitation of field of view. In order to avoid possible collisions, it is desirable to consider visibility information. Then, a robot can reduce the speed or modify a path. This paper proposes a safe navigation scheme to reduce the risk of collision due to unexpected dynamic obstacles. The robot's motion is controlled according to a hybrid control scheme. The possibility of collision is dually reflected to a path planning and a speed control. The proposed scheme clearly indicates the structural procedure on how to model and to exploit the risk of navigation. The proposed scheme is experimentally tested in a real office building. The presented result shows that the robot moves along the safe path to obtain sufficient field of view, while appropriate speed control is carried out.

Autonomous guided robot navigation which consists of following unknown paths and avoiding unknown obstacles has been a fundamental technique for unmanned robots in outdoor environments. The unknown path following requires techniques such as path recognition, path planning, and robot pose estimation. In this paper, we propose a novel sensor fusion system for autonomous guided robot navigation in outdoor environments. The proposed system consists of three monocular cameras and an array of nine infrared range sensors. The two cameras equipped on the robot's right and left sides are used to recognize unknown paths and estimate relative robot pose on these paths through bayesian sensor fusion method, and the other camera equipped at the front of the robot is used to recognize abrupt curves and unknown obstacles. The infrared range sensor array is used to improve the robustness of obstacle avoidance. The forward camera and the infrared range sensor array are fused through rule-based method for obstacle avoidance. Experiments in outdoor environments show the mobile robot with the proposed sensor fusion system performed successfully real-time autonomous guided navigation.
