Surveillance Planning with Bézier Curves

Public release of the GSOA-based approach (formerly SOM-based) for solving surveillance planning problem formulated as a variant of the Close Enough Traveling Salesman Problem (CETSP) with Bézier curves, i.e., a variant of the TSP with Neighborhoods (TSPN) with disk-shaped neighborhoods in 2D and sphere-shaped neighborhoods in 3D, is provided at the https://github.com/comrob/cetsp-bezier-gsoa. The approach has been introduced in our RA-L paper and then further generalized to solve problems with a group of aerial vehicles reported in the Journal of Field Robotics. Notice, the employed unsupervised learning based approach is originally based on the Self-Organizing Map (SOM) for the TSP that has been consolidated and generalized to the Growing-Self-Organizing Array (GSOA) for solving TSP like routing problems with the available implementation for solving instances of the Euclidean TSP and CETSP.

Self-Organizing Map based solver for the Prize-Collecting Traveling Salesman Problem with Neighborhoods (PC-TSPN)

A public release of library for solving PC-TSPN for academic purposes is available in the archive som_pctspn_v1.1.tar.xz. It contains a complete configurable program with visualization. It depends on the following libraries: log4cxx, boost, and cairo. If you use the solver for your research, please, cite the paper.

A public release of the simplified the library without dependencies for solving the PC-TSPN for academic purposes is planned to be published at the end of 2015 (also accompanied with the data set used in our papers). If you have any question regarding the solver do not hesitate to contact me at faiglj@fel.cvut.cz

A visualization of the unsupervised learning during solving an instance of the PC-TSPN can be see in the video file.
Further details about the solver can be found in the following paper.
