A cooperative coverage path planning method for multiple USVs with dynamic collision avoidance using heuristic fusion and deep reinforcement learning

International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering
To address the inefficiency and lack of real-time dynamic obstacle avoidance in regional coverage algorithms under complex maritime conditions, this paper proposes a cooperative path planning method for multiple Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs) in ...

Generating a Region Map for The Problem of Complete Coverage and Path Planning

Journal of Eastern Europe Research in Business and Economics
Emergency response procedures for the victims of natural disasters require information about the number and location of victims and their needs or injuries. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can efficiently reconnaissance the disaster area. The sum of UAVs’ routes has to cover the entire disaster area, which is divided into sectors with priorities.
