A Scalable Post-Processing Pipeline for Large-Scale Free-Space Multi-Agent Path Planning with PiBT
Arjo Chakravarty, Michael X. Grey, M. A. Viraj J. Muthugala +1
Free-space multi-agent path planning remains challenging at large scales. Most existing methods either offer optimality guarantees but do not scale beyond a few dozen agents, or re…
