We study the approximability of two related problems on graphs with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges: $n$-Pairs Shortest Paths ($n$-PSP), where the goal is to find a shortest path between $O(n)$ prespecified pairs, and All Node Shortest Cycles…
We define a graph-based rate optimization problem and consider its computation, which provides a unified approach to the computation of various theoretical limits, including the (conditional) graph entropy, rate-distortion functions and…
This paper introduces an extension to the Orienteering Problem (OP), called Clustered Orienteering Problem with Subgroups (COPS). In this variant, nodes are arranged into subgroups, and the subgroups are organized into clusters. A reward is…
Robotic grasping is one of the most fundamental robotic manipulation tasks and has been actively studied. However, how to quickly teach a robot to grasp a novel target object in clutter remains challenging. This paper attempts to tackle the…
The orienteering problem is a well-studied and fundamental problem in transportation science. In the problem, we are given a graph with prizes on the nodes and lengths on the edges, together with a budget on the overall tour length. The…
We combine the well known Shortest Paths (SP) problem and the Bottleneck Paths (BP) problem to introduce a new problem called the Shortest Paths for All Flows (SP-AF) problem that has relevance in real life applications. We first solve the…
Recent advances in LiDAR technology have opened up new possibilities for robotic navigation. Given the widespread use of occupancy grid maps (OGMs) in robotic motion planning, this paper aims to address the challenges of integrating LiDAR…
Optimal transport on a graph focuses on finding the most efficient way to transfer resources from one distribution to another while considering the graph's structure. This paper introduces a new distributed algorithm that solves the optimal…
In this paper, we deal with the problem of creating globally consistent pose graphs in a centralized multi-robot SLAM framework. For each robot to act autonomously, individual onboard pose estimates and maps are maintained, which are then…
In this paper, we propose a general graph optimization based framework for localization, which can accommodate different types of measurements with varying measurement time intervals. Special emphasis will be on range-based localization.…
In the decremental $(1+\epsilon)$-approximate Single-Source Shortest Path (SSSP) problem, we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $n = |V|, m = |E|$, undergoing edge deletions, and a distinguished source $s \in V$, and we are asked to process…
This paper extends the Arc Orienteering Problem (AOP) to large road networks with time-dependent travel times and time-dependent value gain, termed Twofold Time-Dependent AOP or 2TD-AOP for short. In its original definition, the NP-hard…
We propose a novel method for multi-objective motion planning problems by leveraging the paradigm of lexicographic optimization and applying it for the first time to graph search over probabilistic roadmaps. The competing resources of…
In many industrial robotics applications, such as spot-welding, spray-painting or drilling, the robot is required to visit successively multiple targets. The robot travel time among the targets is a significant component of the overall…
Multirobot systems for covering environments are increasingly used in applications like cleaning, industrial inspection, patrolling, and precision agriculture. The problem of covering a given environment using multiple robots can be…
Connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs), unlike conventional cars, will utilise the whole space of intersections and cross in a lane-free order. This paper formulates such a lane-free crossing of intersections as a multi-objective optimal…
In the Asymmetric Traveling Salesperson Problem (ATSP) the goal is to find a closed walk of minimum cost in a directed graph visiting every vertex. We consider the approximability of ATSP on topologically restricted graphs. It has been…
In this paper we study local routing strategies on geometric graphs. Such strategies use geometric properties of the graph like the coordinates of the current and target nodes to route. Specifically, we study routing strategies in the…
In this paper, we solve the local gathering problem of a swarm of $n$ indistinguishable, point-shaped robots on a two dimensional grid in asymptotically optimal time $\mathcal{O}(n)$ in the fully synchronous $\mathcal{FSYNC}$ time model.…
In this paper, we present a new randomized $O(1)$-approximation algorithm for the All-Pairs Shortest Paths (APSP) problem in weighted undirected graphs that runs in just $O(\log \log \log n)$ rounds in the Congested-Clique model. Before our…
