The Reach-Avoid Problem for Constant-Rate Multi-Mode Systems
A constant-rate multi-mode system is a hybrid system that can switch freely
among a finite set of modes, and whose dynamics is specified by a finite number
of real-valued variables with mode-dependent constant rates. Alur, Wojtczak,
and Trivedi have shown that reachability problems for constant-rate multi-mode
systems for open and convex safety sets can be solved in polynomial time. In
this paper, we study the reachability problem for non-convex state spaces and
show that this problem is in general undecidable. We recover decidability by
making certain assumptions about the safety set. We present a new algorithm to
solve this problem and compare its performance with the popular sampling based
algorithm rapidly-exploring random tree (RRT) as implemented in the Open Motion
Planning Library (OMPL).Comment: 26 page
