Autonomous ground vehicles have improved greatly over the past decades, but they still have their limitations when it comes to off-road environments. There is still a need for planning techniques that effectively handle physical interactions between a vehicle and its surroundings. We present a method of modifying a standard path planning algorithm to address these problems by incorporating a learn...
