A neural-network-based path generation technique for mobile robots

In this paper, we briefly review some of the most common approaches in path planning and we present a unified approach in path generation for a mobile robot. We use a memory neuron network to control a mobile robot along a trajectory while avoiding obstacles. We briefly show the robot's features in order to introduce the neural network used to control it. Some simulation results are discussed.
