Distributed Covariance Steering via Non-Convex ADMM for Large-Scale Multi-Agent Systems

Augustinos D. Saravanos, Isin M. Balci, Arshiya Taj Abdul +2

This paper studies the problem of steering large-scale multi-agent stochastic linear systems between Gaussian distributions under probabilistic collision avoidance constraints. We…

Game-Theoretic Autonomous Driving: A Graphs of Convex Sets Approach

Nikolaj Käfer, Ahmed Khalil, Edward Huynh +2

Multi-vehicle autonomous driving couples strategic interaction with hybrid (discrete-continuous) maneuver planning under shared safety constraints. We introduce IBR-GCS, an Iterati…
