Abstract :
The integration of evolutionary approaches with adaptive memory processes is emerging as a promising new area for research and practical applications. In this paper, we report our study on adding memory to the Evolutionary Planner/Navigator (EP/N), which is an adaptive planning/navigation system for mobile robots based on evolutionary computation. Preliminary results from our experiments demonstrate the potential of such extension to EP/N in improving planning effectiveness in partially-known environments
