Coverage path planning for autonomous underwater vehicles [PDF]
, 2014 This thesis proposes new methods to find collision-free paths allowing an AUV to cover an area of the ocean floor with its sensors, which is known as coverage path planning. First, we propose a coverage path planning method to plan 2D, safe-altitude surveys which provides a principled way to account for obstacles in AUV survey planning.

An approach for coverage path planning for UAVs [PDF]
2016 IEEE 14th International Workshop on Advanced Motion Control (AMC), 2016 In this paper, an offline flight planner that computes an efficient coverage trajectory for a quad-rotors UAV is presented. The planner consists of three steps: mission definition, automatic path planning and trajectory generation. The proposed planner, as a useful tool, allows an UAV operator to easily define and generate a coverage trajectory for any

Spatial coverage in routing and path planning problems
European Journal of Operational Research, 2023 Routing and path planning problems that involve spatial coverage have received increasing attention in recent years in different application areas. Spatial coverage refers to the possibility of considering nodes that are not directly served by a vehicle as visited for the purpose of the objective function or constraints.

Simulating Coverage Path Planning with Roomba
CoRR, 2022 Coverage Path Planning involves visiting every unoccupied state in an environment with obstacles. In this paper, we explore this problem in environments which are initially unknown to the agent, for purposes of simulating the task of a vacuum cleaning robot. A survey of prior work reveals sparse effort in applying learning to solve this problem.

Edge Coverage Path Planning for Robot Mowing
CoRR, 2022 Thanks to the rapid evolvement of robotic technologies, robot mowing is emerging to liberate humans from the tedious and time-consuming landscape work. Traditionally, robot mowing is perceived as a "Coverage Path Planning" problem, with a simplification that converts non-convex obstacles into convex obstacles.

Sampling-Based Coverage Path Planning for Inspection of Complex Structures [PDF]
, 2012 We present several new contributions in sampling-based coverage path planning, the task of finding feasible paths that give 100% sensor coverage of complex structures in obstacle-filled and visually occluded environments.
