Abstract
A system for producing a trajectory from a diverse set of possible movements can include a processor and a memory. The memory can store a possible movement production module and a trajectory production module. The possible movement production module can include instructions that cause the processor to: (1) produce a set of possible movements of a mobile robot with respect to a challenge, (2) determine a measure of diversity between a first possible movement and a second possible movement, and (3) produce a subset. Measures of diversity associated with possible movements included in the subset can be larger than measures of diversity associated with possible movements excluded from the subset. The trajectory production module can include instructions that cause the processor to: (1) produce trajectories associated with the possible movements included in the subset and (2) cause the mobile robot to move according to one of the trajectories.
