用图神经网络生成更均匀的采样点,提升路径规划效率
Improving Efficiency of Sampling-based Motion Planning via Message-Passing Monte Carlo
- 用图神经网络驱动的消息传递蒙特卡洛生成低差异采样点
- 在高维空间中减少30%以上采样量,显著降低计算开销
- 适合需要高效探索配置空间的机器人路径规划场景
基于采样的路径规划方法虽能在高维空间中有效工作,但常因采样分布不规则导致探索效率低下。本文提出一种新方法,通过消息传递蒙特卡洛(MPMC)生成低差异采样分布。MPMC利用图神经网络(GNN)生成覆盖空间更均匀的点集,均匀性由$ ext{L}_p$-差异度量评估,用于量化采样分布的不规则程度。改进采样点的均匀性后,大幅降低了求解路径规划问题所需的样本数与计算开销。实验表明,该方法在规划效率上优于传统采样技术。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Sampling-based motion planning methods, while effective in high-dimensional spaces, often suffer from inefficiencies due to irregular sampling distributions, leading to suboptimal exploration of the configuration space. In this paper, we propose an approach that enhances the efficiency of these methods by utilizing low-discrepancy distributions generated through Message-Passing Monte Carlo (MPMC). MPMC leverages Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to generate point sets that uniformly cover the space, with uniformity assessed using the the $\cL_p$-discrepancy measure, which quantifies the irregularity of sample distributions. By improving the uniformity of the point sets, our approach significantly reduces computational overhead and the number of samples required for solving motion planning problems. Experimental results demonstrate that our method outperforms traditional sampling techniques in terms of planning efficiency.
