| Summary: | Robots are currently replacing humans in different tasks in various sectors. Among the vital features desirable in autonomous robots is the capability of navigating safely through a given environment. Robot navigation is a process designed with the ability of avoiding any hitches or obstacles while aiming at a specific predefined position. Many studies have been proposed to find solutions to robot path-planning problems. This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of the relevant publications published from 2000 to 2020. The results show that 5385 articles were published in 1128 journals, hence indicating publication diversity. There is a steady rise in the yearly publication output, reflecting an increase in global research interest in the topic. In general, this research provides useful insight into path-planning research so that researchers in this area can better recognize the relevant research study topics and search for the appropriate research partners. |
