  • 基于MPPI的时空信息规划,长时程优化运动轨迹。
  • 多目标代价函数平衡搜索与追踪,确保路径安全可行。
  • 适合动态环境下的多目标搜索任务,实测验证有效。

自主水面艇(ASV)为开放水域的环境清理和搜救提供了高效方案。由于目标持续漂移,高效搜索需在未探测区域探索与已知目标追踪之间取得平衡。然而,多数追踪场景仅采用简单引导行为和短期预测进行决策。本文针对动态环境中多个漂移目标(如垃圾)的搜索与捕获问题,提出一种混合规划框架。核心是基于模型预测路径积分(MPPI)的时空信息规划方法,一种基于采样的模型预测控制技术。该规划器直接在长时程内优化连续轨迹,生成运动学级指令。多目标代价函数同时兼顾搜索与追踪需求,并保证轨迹的安全性与可行性。在拦截阶段,切换至纯追踪引导控制器实现物理捕获。实验表明,所提规划器优于选定基线方法。最后,通过真实无人艇场外试验验证了该方法的有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Autonomous surface vehicles offer an efficient solution for environmental cleanup as well as search and rescue operations in open waters. Targets in these settings drift continuously, so efficient search must balance exploration of unobserved regions with tracking of known targets. However, most target tracking and pursuit scenarios consider simple guidance behaviours and short-term predictions for decision-making. In this letter, we address the problem of search and capture of multiple drifting targets, such as litter, in dynamic environments, using a hybrid planning framework. A key aspect of our strategy is a spatiotemporal informative planning method based on model predictive path integral (MPPI) control, a sampling-based model predictive control approach. The planner directly generates kinematic-level commands by optimising continuous trajectories over long horizons. A multi-objective cost balances search and tracking objectives while ensuring safe, feasible trajectories. In the interception stage, we switch to a pure pursuit guidance controller for the physical capture of moving targets. Experiments show that our planner outperforms the chosen planning baselines. Finally, we validate our approach in field trials with an ASV.
