Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Experimental We also demonstrate experimentally that ECBS+HWY outperforms ECBS (in terms of runtime and solution cost) in Kiva-like domains with many agents if the highway s layout captures the domain structure well (that is, the highway edges are such that agents have incentives to move in only one direction in each corridor). Figures 3 and 4 show some experimental results.

Experiment Setup Yes Figure 2: Our model of a Kiva-like domain. Highway edges are represented by red arrows. For a given number of agents, we generate instances by assigning half of the agents a randomly chosen start location in Area1 and a randomly chosen goal location in Area2, and vice-versa for the other half. Figure 3: Each data point is the median runtime over 10 trials. Figure 4: Each data point is an instance with 150 agents solved within 5 minutes.
