Abstract:This study explores the application of a path planning algorithm based on Q-learning and eligibility traces in autonomous task execution for Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs). The algorithm aims to provide secure path planning for USVs in dynamic unknown environments, taking into account obstacles, potential threats, and multiple constraints. Initially, a detailed Markov Decision Process (MDP) model was designed. Subsequently, the introduced Q-learning and eligibility trace algorithm demonstrated significant ad… Show more
