OBPRM: an obstacle-based PRM for 3D workspaces

TLDR
This paper presents a new class of randomized path planning methods, known as Probabilistic Roadmap Methods (prms), which use randomization to construct a graph of representative paths in C-space whose vertices correspond to collision-free con gurations of the robot.
Abstract
Recently, a new class of randomized path planning methods, known as Probabilistic Roadmap Methods (prms) have shown great potential for solving complicated high-dimensional problems. prms use randomization (usually during preprocessing) to construct a graph of representative paths in C-space (a roadmap) whose vertices correspond to collision-free con gurations of the robot and in which two vertices are connected by an edge if a path between the two corresponding con gurations can be found by a local planning method.

Legged Motion Planning in Complex Three-Dimensional Environments

TL;DR: In this article, contact dynamic roadmaps (CDRM) are extended with contact information to support full-body motion planning in complex 3-dimensional environments, and the concept behind this is to perform the expensive foothold candidate generation and collision checking phases offline and store the data for use in the online planner.

Blind RRT: A probabilistically complete distributed RRT

TL;DR: A new algorithm is presented, Blind RRT, which ignores obstacles during initial growth to efficiently explore the entire space of parallel RRTs and overcomes the motion planning limitations that Radial RRT has in a series of difficult motion planning tasks.

Probabilistic roadmaps for path planning in high-dimensional configuration spaces

TL;DR: Experimental results show that path planning can be done in a fraction of a second on a contemporary workstation (/spl ap/150 MIPS), after learning for relatively short periods of time (a few dozen seconds).
