Path Generation Using a Random Walk Algorithm
Matthew Camuto, Gary L. Kinzel · 1998
Abstract This paper develops a method for improved path generation utilizing optimization and rectification theory. Gradient based optimization methods with respect to path generation are examined and proved impractical by example. A random walk algorith is presented then tailored for path generation. By parameterizing the desired curve and utilizing this random walk algorithm results using gradient based methods are improved upon. An example using this algorithm is presented.
