Abstract [eng] |
The goal of pathfinding algorithms is to find a path between the desired points. An optimal path is more complex and time consuming to find, which is why some industries, such as the video game industry, can sacrifice optimality for reduced run-time. A grid map can be represented as an image, so techniques used in image processing, such as filtering, may be applied to pathfinding. In this paper we propose a convolution inspired hierarchical pathfinding algorithm that achieved 4% longer paths and 97% shorter runtime than A* on average. |
