This paper presents a novel evolutionary G–continuous (continuous-differentiable curvature) path planner for nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots. The evolutionary path planner generates intermediate configurations connected via η-splines that yields a collision-free G–continuous path, which each point on the path has a closed-form expression. The path planner is implemented as architecture of is...

| This paper introduces a new tournament selection algorithm that can be used for evolutionary path planning systems. The fuzzy tournament selection algorithm (FTSA) described in this paper selects candidate paths (CPs) to be parents and undergo reproduction based on: (1) the euclidean distance of a path from the origin to its destination, (2) the sum of the changes in the slope of a path, and ...

The exponential rise in wireless communication demands and allied applications have revitalized academia-industries to develop more efficient routing protocols. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) being battery operated network, it often undergoes node death-causing pre-ma...
