-PRM Meaning each step choose nearest neighbors to be the states which are under consideration.

-PRM The expected states are to be chosen within a ball (or circle) region, for all states included in the radius will be chosen to connect to the vertex.

--PRM A combination of above two, where for a given radius the upper bound of the vertices to be chosen is .
