The path planning algorithms search for the collision-free path between the start and end points while satisfying the evaluation metrics 1. These algorithms are classified as the classical approaches, ...

Shortest path algorithms sit at the heart of modern graph theory and many of the systems that move people, data, and goods around the world. After nearly seventy years of relying on the same classic ...

A header-only C++ implementation of the single-source shortest path (SSSP) algorithm for sparse directed graphs with non-negative weights, based on the 2025 paper by Duan et al. This algorithm is ...

For the low efficiency and poor generalization ability of path planning algorithm of industrial robots, this work proposes an adaptive field co-sampling algorithm (AFCS). Firstly, the environment ...

When Edsger W. Dijkstra published his algorithm in 1959, computer networks were barely a thing. The algorithm in question found the shortest path between any two nodes on a graph, with a variant ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

For decades, Dijkstra's algorithm has been the gold standard for finding the shortest path in graphs with non-negative edge weights. However, recent advancements in computer science have introduced a ...

If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle the easiest pieces first. But this kind of sorting has a cost.

Unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) nowadays have been widely used in ocean observation missions, helping researchers to monitor climate change, collect environmental data, and observe marine ecosystem ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the shortest path planning of unmanned surface vehicles (USV) in complicated marine environments. A novel path planning method called “sunlight algorithm” is first ...

ABSTRACT: In any military operation, reliable logistics is essential to maintaining a combat-effective force. Without the continual resupply of ammunition, food, and other materiel, forces cannot ...

The increasing impact of urban floods, driven by global climate change and the growing frequency of extreme weather events, poses significant threats to public safety, disrupts infrastructure, and ...
