Active Inference for Autonomous Decision-Making with Contextual Multi-Armed Bandits
Shohei Wakayama, Nisar Ahmed
In autonomous robotic decision-making under uncertainty, the tradeoff between exploitation and exploration of available options must be considered. If secondary information associa…
Nonlinear Heterogeneous Bayesian Decentralized Data Fusion
Ofer Dagan, Tycho L. Cinquini, Nisar R. Ahmed
The factor graph decentralized data fusion (FG-DDF) framework was developed for the analysis and exploitation of conditional independence in {heterogeneous Bayesian decentralized f…
Pareto Optimal Strategies for Event-Triggered Estimation
Anne Theurkauf, Nisar Ahmed, Morteza Lahijanian
Although resource-limited networked autonomous systems must be able to efficiently and effectively accomplish tasks, better conservation of resources often results in worse task pe…
A Factor-Based Framework for Decision-Making Competency Self-Assessment
Brett W. Israelsen, Nisar Ahmed
We summarize our efforts to date in developing a framework for generating succinct human-understandable competency self-assessments in terms of machine self confidence, i.e. a robo…
Conservative Filtering for Heterogeneous Decentralized Data Fusion in Dynamic Robotic Systems
Ofer Dagan, Nisar R. Ahmed
This paper presents a method for Bayesian multi-robot peer-to-peer data fusion where any pair of autonomous robots hold non-identical, but overlapping parts of a global joint proba…
