In this paper, a modified Genetic Algorithm is presented for mobile robot path planning applications in a known environment. The algorithm provides the optimal path using the modified variable-length chromosomes study using the fitness function, which calculates the path length of the chromosomes such that the large path lengths are eliminated. The proposed algorithm uses the 8-way movement robot instead of the conventionally adopted 4-way movement commonly used in such applications. The results obtained using the proposed modified Genetic Algorithm during the study are compared with other approaches to the Genetic Algorithm. The proposed algorithm shows improvement in the convergence speed, provides better flexibility, provides shorter path length, and reduces the total time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
