PRMs for Motion Planning

Motion Planning has been dominated by algorithms that lie towards RRTs and related derivatives such as BiRRTs. Openrave for instance comes with RRT planners which do the job just a nuce as one needs it. PRMs(Probabilistic RoadMaps) however remain under-exploited even though they pose a great potential in motion planning owing to the probabilistic nature and the fact that classical graph algorithms can be optimized to be used in the stages of PRMs. I have now started looking at PRMs in deeper perspective with the aim of getting a better understanding of how they work and how they are implemented.
