The generator searches the configuration space surrounding existing nodes in the roadmap and uses a combination of random and deterministic search methods that emulate the behaviour of octopus limbs. The strategy consists of randomly mutating the states of the links near the end-effector, and mutating the states of the links near the base of the robot toward the states of the goal configuration. When combined with the small tree probabilistic roadmap planner, the method was successfully used to solve the narrow passage motion planning problem of a 17 degree-of-freedom manipulator.展开更多

To present this approach, the paper mainly describes a generation method of nodes considering the safety distance of pipes and the directional constraints at terminals, the definition of a double coding technique, the collision detection method, the concept of energy and the definition of fitness functions. The similarity detection is introduced to prevent close breeding in the crossover operator, the selection pressure is controlled according to the evolution situation and a heuristic mutation method is used to boost the evolution. Simulation case shows that this approach is more practical and can satisfy different design requirements by changing algorithm parameters.展开更多
