This letter addresses the joint task allocation and path planning problem, whereby a fleet of vehicles must be optimally assigned to service multiple given tasks while their planned paths must be collision-free. Such a problem composed of two tightly coupled optimization problems has a high complexi
We proposed a novel dual-process optimization approach for parts collection order and route planning in parts warehouses. Conventional multi-agent parts collection typically uses the vehicle routing problem (VRP), which focuses on minimizing the number of agents and costs. However, the model does no…
We address the joint task allocation and path planning problem whereby an operator with a fleet of vehicles must assign multiple tasks to each vehicle, while ensuring collision-free paths for them such that the total travel cost is minimized. Instead of sequentially solving the task allocation probl…
