VLP: Vision Language Planning for Autonomous Driving

Chenbin Pan, Burhaneddin Yaman, Tommaso Nesti +4

Autonomous driving is a complex and challenging task that aims at safe motion planning through scene understanding and reasoning. While vision-only autonomous driving methods have…

Emergence of scale-free blackout sizes in power grids

Tommaso Nesti, Fiona Sloothaak, Bert Zwart

We model power grids as graphs with heavy-tailed sinks, which represent demand from cities, and study cascading failures on such graphs. Our analysis links the scale-free nature of…

Large Fluctuations in Locational Marginal Prices

Tommaso Nesti, John Moriarty, Alessandro Zocca +1

This paper investigates large fluctuations of Locational Marginal Prices (LMPs) in wholesale energy markets caused by volatile renewable generation profiles. Specifically, we study…

Emergent failures and cascades in power grids: a statistical physics perspective

Tommaso Nesti, Alessandro Zocca, Bert Zwart

We model power grids transporting electricity generated by intermittent renewable sources as complex networks, where line failures can emerge indirectly by noisy power input at the…

Line failure probability bounds for power grids

Tommaso Nesti, Alessandro Zocca, Bert Zwart

We develop upper bounds for line failure probabilities in power grids, under the DC approximation and assuming Gaussian noise for the power injections. Our upper bounds are explici…
