cGAN surrogates recover 45-60% of CFD energy savings and high-velocity wake avoidance in 3D AUV path planning while running at 28-146 microsecond inference speeds across 19,800 trajectories.
OSCAR learns class-conditioned survival distributions for obstacle clearance times online (handling right-censored data) to compute patience thresholds in graph-based navigation, converging near oracle performance after few observations per class.
Zeta* and Zeta*-SIPP use elliptical expansion and improved visibility to deliver optimal any-angle paths on grids, with Zeta*-SIPP over 20x faster than prior dynamic planners.
A search-based air traffic conflict-free path planner (SSPP), using three conflict-detection variants, computes routes in milliseconds with straight, aircraft-suitable paths.
The anti-lexicographic SUS-anchor achieves sampling densities less than 1% above the lower bound for alphabet size 4 and k=1, substantially outperforming bidirectional anchors.
Bidirectional Evolutionary Search augments autoregressive expansion with evolutionary recombination operators and dense backward subgoal feedback to produce better candidates than standard best-of-N or tree search for language model self-improvement.
GRAFT-ATHENA projects combinatorial method choices into factored trees that embed as fingerprints in a metric space, enabling an agentic system to accumulate experience across domains and autonomously discover new numerical techniques for physics-informed problems.
CogInstrument represents human reasoning as revisable cognitive motifs in graphical form to support iterative alignment with LLMs during planning tasks, with a N=12 study indicating gains in targeted revision, agency, and trust over standard dialogue interfaces.
A branch-and-bound algorithm with custom node selection, branching rules, and conflict definitions solves the logic-constrained shortest path problem for flight planning with traffic flow restrictions, showing order-of-magnitude speedups on a public global dataset with 20000 real constraints.
FRAMe combines an LLM planner with RAG-based memory and a multi-modal coach agent to generate valid, preference-aligned eVTOL flight plans, achieving up to 93.8% validity across four LLMs.
IR-SIM is a YAML-defined simulator for mobile robot navigation that supports text-prompt scenario creation, policy training, benchmarking, and bridging to higher-fidelity or real-world settings.
Presents a framework for training empirically admissible neural heuristics via underestimating Bellman operator, asymmetric loss, and validation calibration offset, reporting reduced node expansions with no observed admissibility violations on small puzzles.
A hybrid LLM-plus-physics-simulation framework generates synthesis routes for niobium oxides and finds that LLM implicit priors produce more viable plans than classical path-planning algorithms in computational tests.
Convex-Neural RRT* uses neural guidance to predict waypoint regions, extracts convex sampling areas from them, and reports 30-75% faster planning than other neural RRT* methods with ~5% shorter paths and >99% success rate on 18 maps.
Distill refines user task specifications for robots by pruning unnecessary steps, generalizing meanings, and relaxing order constraints, as demonstrated in a crowdsourcing study on a web interface.
The paper argues flat minima are an illusion and that a reparameterization-invariant 'weakness' score predicts generalization where raw sharpness fails.
A hybrid PLL oracle and neural A* method constrains LLM generation to paths in a 700K-node medical graph, claiming better latency-recall tradeoffs and fewer hallucinations than text-only RAG on fertility queries.
A technical review of 32 ARG sampling programs, grouped by algorithm family and compared on event types, performance, usability, and source-code accessibility.
Genetic algorithm with AHP produces more diverse paths than A* whose runtime is independent of environment size, claimed to increase continuum robot resilience in two simulated settings.
