Nondeterminism subject to output commitment in combinatorial filters
Yulin Zhang, Dylan A. Shell
We study a class of filters -- discrete finite-state transition systems employed as incremental stream transducers -- that have application to robotics: e.g., to model combinatoria…
Lattices of sensors reconsidered when less information is preferred
Yulin Zhang, Dylan A. Shell
To treat sensing limitations (with uncertainty in both conflation of information and noise) we model sensors as covers. This leads to a semilattice organization of abstract sensors…
Motion Planning for a Pair of Tethered Robots
Reza H. Teshnizi, Dylan A. Shell
Considering an environment containing polygonal obstacles, we address the problem of planning motions for a pair of planar robots connected to one another via a cable of limited le…
Accelerating combinatorial filter reduction through constraints
Yulin Zhang, Hazhar Rahmani, Dylan A. Shell +1
Reduction of combinatorial filters involves compressing state representations that robots use. Such optimization arises in automating the construction of minimalist robots. But exa…
Planning to Chronicle
Hazhar Rahmani, Dylan A. Shell, Jason M. O'Kane
An important class of applications entails a robot monitoring, scrutinizing, or recording the evolution of an uncertain time-extended process. This sort of situation leads an inter…
Abstractions for computing all robotic sensors that suffice to solve a planning problem
Yulin Zhang, Dylan A. Shell
Whether a robot can perform some specific task depends on several aspects, including the robot's sensors and the plans it possesses. We are interested in search algorithms that tre…
