DARP: Divide Areas Algorithm for Optimal Multi-Robot Coverage Path Planning
Kapoutsis, Athanasios Ch.; Chatzichristofis, Savvas A.; Kosmatopoulos, Elias B. (Springer, 2017)This paper deals with the path planning problem of a team of mobile robots, in order to cover an area of interest, with prior-defined obstacles. For the single robot case, also known as single robot coverage path planning ...

A distributed, plug-n-play algorithm formulti-robot applications with a priorinon-computable objective functions
Kapoutsis, Athanasios Ch.; Chatzichristofis, Savvas A.; Kosmatopoulos, Elias B. (Sage, 2019-05)This paper presents a distributed algorithm applicable to a wide range of practical multi-robot applications. In such multi-robot applications, the user-defined objectives of the mission can be cast as a general optimization ...

A Multi-Objective Exploration Strategy for Mobile Robots Under Operational Constraints
Amanatiadis, Angelos A.; Chatzichristofis, Savvas A.; Charalampous, Konstantinos; Doitsidis, Lefteris; Kosmatopoulos, Elias B.; Tsalides, Phillipos; Gasterato, Antonios; Roumeliotis, Stergios I. (IEEE, 2013)Multi-objective robot exploration constitutes one of the most challenging tasks for autonomous robots performing in various operations and different environments. However, the optimal exploration path depends heavily on ...

Real-time adaptive multi-robot exploration with application to underwater map construction
Kapoutsis, Athanasios Ch.; Chatzichristofis, Savvas A.; Doitsidis, Lefteris; Borges de Sousa, João; Pinto, Jose; Braga, Jose; Kosmatopoulos, Elias B. (Springer, 2016)This paper deals with the problem of autonomous exploration of unknown areas using teams of Autonomous X Vehicles (AXVs)—with X standing for Aerial, Underwater or Sea-surface—where the AXVs have to autonomously navigate ...
