In this paper, we present a path-smoothing algorithm for a robot arm manipulator that finds the path using a joint space-based rapidly-exploring random tree. Unlike other smoothing algorithms which require complex mathematical computation, the proposed path-smoothing algorithm is done using a Gaussian process. To find the optimal hyperparameters of the Gaussian process, we use differential evolution hybridized with opposition-based learning. The simulation result indicates that the Gaussian process whose hyperparameters were optimized by hybrid differential evolution successfully smoothed the path generated by the joint space-based rapidly-exploring random tree.

In this paper, we propose an improved path planning method and obstacle avoidance algorithm for two-wheel mobile robots, which can be effectively applied in an environment where obstacles can be represented by circles. Firstly, we briefly introduce the rapidly exploring random tree (RRT) and single polar polynomial (SPP) algorithm. Secondly, we present additional two methods for applying our proposed method. Thirdly, we propose a global path planning, smoothing and obstacle avoidance method that combines the RRT and SPP algorithms. Finally, we present a simulation using our proposed method and check the feasibility. This shows that proposed method is better than existing methods in terms of the optimality of the trajectory and the satisfaction of the kinematic constraints.

A fundamental technology of UGV(Unmanned Ground Vehicle) to perform a given mission with success in various environment is a path planning method which generates a safe and optimal path to the goal. In this paper, we suggest a local path-planning method of UGV based on the binary map using world model data which is gathered from terrain perception sensors. In specially, we present three core algorithms such as shortest path computation algorithm, path optimization algorithm and path smoothing algorithm those are used in the each composition module of LPP component. A simulation is conducted with M&S(Modeling & Simulation) system in order to verify the performance of each core algorithm and the performance of LPP component with scenarios.

This paper proposes a smoothing method for symmetric conic linear programming (SCLP). We first characterize the central path conditions for SCLP problems with the help of Chen-Harker-Kanzow-Smale smoothing function. A smoothing-type algorithm is constructed based on this characterization and the global convergence and locally quadratic convergence for the proposed algorithm are demonstrated.

The combination of both phase-shifting convolution and 2-bit quantization smoothing filter was used to reduce speckle noise from saw-tooth speckle fringes phase map, obtained in phase-shifting speckle interferometer. The phase-shifting convolution showed the noise reduction capability of speckle fringe without destroying edge information across 271 jump. Also, it was shown that the 2-bit quantization smoothing filter was superior to average, low-pass filter and median filter in speeding up smoothing process and enhancing SIN ratio. Finally, a path dependent unwrapping algorithm was used to unwrap a noise reduced 271 modulo speckle phasemap. semap.

This paper proposes a path planning algorithm for mobile robot. To generate an optimal path and minimum time path for a mobile robot, we use the Genetic Algorithm(GA) and Visibility Graph. After finding a minimum-distance between start and goal point, the path is revised to find the minimum time path by path-smoothing algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithms are more effective.

Unlike terrestrial transportation, marine transportation should consider environment factors in order to optimize path planning. This is because, ship's path planning is greatly influenced by real-time ocean environment-sea currents, wave and wind. Therefore, in this study, we suggest a ship path planning algorithm based on real-time ocean environment using not only $A^*$ algorithm but also path smoothing method. Moreover, in order to improve objective function value, we also consider ship's moving distance based on ship's location and real-time ocean environment data on grid map. The efficiency of the suggested algorithm is proved by comparing with $A^*$ algorithm only. This algorithm can be used as a reasonable automatics control system algorithm for unmaned ship.

DNA(Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid)컴퓨팅은 생체분자를 계산의 도구로 이용하는 새로운 계산 방법으로 DNA 정보 저장능력과 DNA의 상보적인 관계를 이용하여 연산을 수행하는 방법이다. 최근에는 DNA 분자들이 갖는 강력한 병렬성을 이용하여 NP-Complete 문제에 적용하는 연구가 많이 시도되고 있다. Adleman이 DNA 컴퓨팅을 이용해 해결한 HPP(Hamilton Path Problem)와는 달리 TSP(Traveling Salesman Problem)는 간선에 가중치가 추가되었기 때문에 DNA 염기배열로 표현하기가 어렵고 또한 염기배열의 길이를 줄이기 위해 고정길이 염기배열을 사용할 경우 가중치가 커지면 효율적이지 못하다. 본 논문에서는 스무딩 알고리즘(smoothing algorithm)을 사용하여 간선의 가중치를 일정한 비율로 줄인 다음 유전자 알고리즘을 사용하여 최적의 염기배열을 찾는 방법을 제안하였다.

An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is a powered pilotless aircraft, which is controlled remotely or autonomously. UAVs are an attractive alternative for many scientific and military organizations. UAVs can perform operations that are considered to be risky or uninhabitable for human. UA V s are currently employed in many military missions such as reconnaissance, surveillance, enemy radar jamming, decoying, suppression of enemy air defense (SEAD), fixed and moving target attack, and air-to-air combat. UAVs also are employed in a number of civilian applications such as monitoring ozone depletion, inclement weather, traffic congestion, and taking images of dangerous territory. For accomplishing the UAV's missions, guarantee of survivability should be preceded. The main objective of this study is to suggest a mathematical programming model and a $A^*PS$-PGA (A-star with Post Smoothing-Parallel Genetic Algorithm) for an UAV's path planning to maximize survivability. A mathematical programming model is composed by using MRPP (Most Reliable Path Problem) and TSP (Traveling Salesman Problem). A path planning algorithm for UAV is applied by transforming MRPP into SPP (Shortest Path Problem).
