  2. Algorithms • A* Algorithm • Genetic Algorithm • Artificial Neural Networks

  3. The Problem • There is a region of static and dynamic obstacles • Guide the robot from source o destination

  4. Assumptions • The entire region divided in grid on size M X N • Each dynamic element can move not more than a unit distance in threshold time

  5. Robotic Assumptions Various directions the robot can move in The representation of various directions

  6. Robotic Assumptions The robotic movements • Move forward (unit step) • Move at an angle of 45 degrees forward (unit step) from the current direction • Move clockwise/anti-clockwise (45 degrees) • Move clockwise/anti-clockwise (90 degrees)

  7. Robotic Movements Various Movements Possible

  8. Algorithm I: A*

  9. Costs • g(n) = depth from the initial node, increases by 1 in every step • h(n) = square of the distance of the current position and the final position + R(n) • R(n) = minimum time required for the robot to rotate in its entire journey assuming no obstacles • f(n) = g(n)+h(n)

  10. 3 2 Goal Position 1 4 R(n) The values of R(n) at various places Region 1: 0 Region 2: 2 Region 3: 1 Region 4: 1

  11. NavigationPlan() Step 1: while(CurrentPosition <> FinalPosition) Begin Step 2: m ← getNextRobotMove(CurrentPosition) Step 3: moveRobot(m)

  12. getNextMove(CurrentPosition) Step 1: closed ← empty list Step 2: add a node n in open such that position(n) = CurrentPosition Step 3: while open is not empty Begin Step 4: extract the node n from open with the least priority Step 5: if n = final position then break Step 6: else Step 7: moves ← all possible moves from the position n Step 8: for each move m in moves Begin Step 9: if m leads us to a point which can be the point of any obstacle in the next unit time then discard move m and continue Step 10 if m is already in open list and is equally good or better then discard this move Step 11: if m is already in closed list and is equally good or better then discard this move Step 12 delete m from open and closed lists Step 13: make m as new node with parent n Step 14: Add node m to open Step 15: Add n to closed Step 16: Remove n from open

  17. Various Phases

  18. Algorithm IIGenetic Algorithm

  19. Genetic Algorithm • We consider a graphical representation of chromosome • Each chromosome a collection of graphical nodes • Crossover operation by graph mixing

  20. Types Of solutions • Full: They are complete solution and fully connect source to destination • Left: The start from the source but are unable to reach to the destination • Right: They do not start from the source but reach the destination

  21. Types Of solutions Full Left Left Right Right

  22. Fitness Function • Full Solution: f(S)=No of steps needed to traverse from source to destination • Left Solution: Number of steps needed to traverse from source to the last point traversed + (Square of the distance of this point to the final destination + R(n)) • Right Solution: (Square of the distance of source point to the first point traversed + R(n)) + Number of steps needed to traverse from this point to the final solution

  23. Initial Solution • Try to find a straight path solution between source and destination • Try to find random left solution between source and destination • Try to find random right solution between source and destination. • Find Full Solutions from fusion of left and right

  24. Initial Solution Step1: for i ← 1 to noIterationsInitial Begin Step2: for j ← 1 to (3/2)*perimeter of board (Maximum moves per solution being tried) Begin Step3: if p ← destinationPoint Step4: add p to current solution set and break Step5: find the move m in moves which makes the robot closest to destination Step6: if point p we reach after m is already in the current solution set then delete earlier points and add this point. Step7: if no move takes the robot closer to target Step 8: make randomMoves number of random moves in any direction Step9: for each move m in these moves, if point p we reach after m is already in the current solution set then delete earlier points and add this point. Step10: if destinationPoint is reached then add this solution set to fullSolution Step11: else add this solution set to leftSolution

  25. Crossover • The crossover can occur between any of the following pairs of solutions • Full Solution and Full Solution • Left Solution and Full Solution • Full Solution and Right Solution • Left Solution and Right solution

  26. Crossover

  27. CrossOver(parent1,parent2) Step 1: points ← find common points in parent1 and parent2 that have same x and y coordinate Step 2: if points <> null Step 3: for each common point p in points Begin Step4: sol1 ← all points in parent1 till p + rotations necessary to transform direction of p to the one of point p of parent2 + all points in parent2 after p Step5: Add sol1 to fullSolution set

  28. Mutation

  29. Mutate Step 1: if no of solutions in full solution set > 0 then Step 2: r1,r2 ← any two random points on a random solution from fullSolution set set with r1 on the left of r2 Step 3: find solutions as found in initial solution with start point as r1 and goal point as r2 Step 4: if full results generated > 0 Step 5: newSolution ← most fit solution in this generated solution set Step 7: sol1 ← all points in solution till r1 + rotations necessary to transform direction of r1 to the one of first point of newSolution + all points in newSolution + rotations necessary to transform direction of last point in newSolution to r2 + all points in solution after r2 Step 8: add sol1 to solutionFull

  30. Selection • With a probability of 2/3, select the most fit chromosome from the full solution set and any one randomly from the left/right/full solution set • With a probability 1/3 select any random chromosome from full solution set and any one randomly from left/right/full solution set

(O0,O1,O2)=(0,1,1) Rotate left 45 degrees and move forward. (O0,O1,O2)=(1,0,0) Do not move. (O0,O1,O2)=(1,0,1) Rotate right 90 degrees. (O0,O1,O2)=(1,1,0) Rotate right 45 degrees and move forward.
