DPF-Bi-RRT^*: An Improved Path Planning Algorithm for Complex 3D Environments With Adaptive Sampling and Dual Potential Field Strategy by Lin Ge, Swee King Phang, Nohaidda Sariff

“…This research work, we introduce a path planning algorithm called DPF-Bi-RRT* which integrates a Dual Potential Field mechanism with a Targeted Sampling Strategy to address path planning issues in complex 3D spaces. The algorithm achieves a good trade off between the global path optimization and precise local obstacle avoidance by combining dual-attraction and dual-repulsion mechanisms. …”

ACQUISITION AND VALUES OF EUROPEAN (WESTERN) MUNICIPALITY AS CONSTITUTIONAL VALUES OF HUMANITY AND THE STATE AND THEIR PERCEPTION IN THE POST-SOVIET LEGAL AREA by Inna G. Postoronko

“…The conducted systematic analysis of the historical retrospective of the formation and development of European (Western) local self-government, and by and large, European (Western) values (basic principles) of municipalism, makes it possible to assert that: a) the latter arose and were formed on the basis of city self-government (about object identification criterion); b) their appearance was the result of collective actions, practice, decisions made by all members of the community, in their interests, on their behalf and for the purpose of solving the most important and urgent issues of urban life (communicative-intersubjective criterion); c) their result was the formation of appropriate behavioral and activity guidelines for each person, their groups and associations that existed, functioned and developed in the conditions of city self-government (organizational-formalizing criterion); d) such behavioral and activity guidelines were not only borrowed by other members and institutions of the local territorial society, but also passed on to other generations of city residents and their associations, taking root in everyday behavior and becoming their mandatory forms and norms (prospective-hereditary criterion; d') they determined the fundamental principles of human socialization and local society - i.e., the emergence and formation of a corresponding system of interests, which in the future were transformed into corresponding behavioral guidelines (attitudes), including legal ones, as well as corresponding practical forms of life (habits), that arose on the basis of the implementation of relevant attitudes, including legal ones (criterion of adjustment in local society); e) they developed according to the following subject-subject scheme: "primitive community in the ancient world (priority of existential and functional issues of the existence of the human community) - ancient Greek polis cities (building a local civilization that significantly influenced the formation of the phenomenology of statehood) - ancient Roman cities - municipalities (building a municipal economy and local society with democratic foundations within the boundaries of a single state / empire) - cities of the feudal period of the development of society (ecclesiastical, knightly, princely / Kurfuster / etc.) …”
