Visibility-based probabilistic roadmaps for motion planning
Abstract
This paper presents a variant of probabilistic roadmap methods (PRM) that recently appeared as a promising approach to motion planning. We exploit a free-space structuring of the configuration space into visibility domains in order to produce small roadmaps, called visibility roadmaps. Our algorithm integrates an original termination condition related to the volume of the free space covered by the roadmap. The planner has been implemented within a software platform allowing us to address a large class of mechanical systems. Experiments show the efficiency of the approach, in particular for capturing narrow passages of collision-free configuration spaces.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
