Alternatives to Re-Planning: Methods for Plan Re-Evaluation at Runtime

Current planning algorithms have difficulty handling the complexity that is due to an increase in domain uncertainty, and especially in the case of multi-dimensional continuous spaces. Therefore, they produce plans that do not take into account numerous situations that can occur at runtime, such as faults or other changes in the planning domain itself. Thus there is a gap between the plan generation and the reality experienced at runtime. Here we present two methods that allow the plan conditionals to be revised w.r.t. uncertainty on the system as estimated at runtime
