Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Path Planning in a collaborative mobile robot system has been a research topic for many years. Uncertainty in robot states, actions, and environmental conditions makes finding the optimum path for navigation highly challenging for the robot. To achieve robust behavior for mobile robots in the presence of static and dynamic obstacles, it is pertinent that the robot employs a path-finding mechanism that is based on the probabilistic perception of the uncertainty in various parameters governing its movement. Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) is being used by many researchers as a proven methodology for handling uncertainty. The POMDP framework requires manually setting up the state transition matrix, the observation matrix, and the reward values. This paper describes an approach for creating the POMDP model and demonstrates its working by simulating it on two mobile robots destined on a collision course. Selective test cases are run on the two robots with three categories – MDP (POMDP with belief state spread of 1), POMDP with distribution spread of belief state over ten observations, and distribution spread across two observations. Uncertainty in the sensor data is simulated with varying levels of up to 10 %. The results are compared and analyzed. It is demonstrated that when the observation probability spread is increased from 2 to 10, collision reduces from 34 % to 22 %, indicating that the system's robustness increases by 12 % with only a marginal increase of 3.4 % in the computational complexity.
