The Computer Science Department discussed the tagged master's thesis Path Planning for Mobile Robot control Movement using Optimization Algorithm By the student (Zahraa Nasser Alwan) Computer Science / Artificial Intelligence today, Sunday, 11/5/2023, in the discussion hall in the building of the Computer Science Department annex. In the presence of the head of the department, Professor Dr. Alaa Kazem Farhan. The thesis aims to improve path planning for mobile robots in complex and crowded environments. By taking advantage of optimization techniques and aiming to develop path planning algorithms that can create safe and efficient paths while reducing energy consumption and resource use, the researcher concluded that combining the genetic algorithm with the gorilla algorithm gives the best planning for the robot. The discussion committee consisted of Prof. Dr. Iyad Rawdan Abbas from the University of Technology as chair and the membership of Prof. Dr. Shatha Habib Jaafar from the University of Technology, Prof. Dr. Salwa Muhammad Najris, Minister’s Office/Women’s Empowerment Department, and Prof. Dr. Hanaa Mohsen. Ahmed from the Technological University, member and supervisor.
