Assistive Decision-Making for Right of Way Navigation at Uncontrolled Intersections

Navya Tiwari, Joseph Vazhaeparampil, Victoria Preston

Uncontrolled intersections account for a significant fraction of roadway crashes due to ambiguous right-of-way rules, occlusions, and unpredictable driver behavior. While autonomou…

Enabling Under-Ice Geochemical Observations with a Size, Weight, and Power-Constrained Robot

Jess Horowitz, Victoria Preston, Anna P. M. Michel

Estimates of greenhouse gas emissions from Arctic estuarine environments are dominated by in situ summer-time ice-free dissolved gas measurements due to the logistical ease of perf…

Robotic Planning under Uncertainty in Spatiotemporal Environments in Expeditionary Science

Victoria Preston, Genevieve Flaspohler, Anna P. M. Michel +2

In the expeditionary sciences, spatiotemporally varying environments -- hydrothermal plumes, algal blooms, lava flows, or animal migrations -- are ubiquitous. Mobile robots are uni…

Enabling Topological Planning with Monocular Vision

Gregory J. Stein, Christopher Bradley, Victoria Preston +1

Topological strategies for navigation meaningfully reduce the space of possible actions available to a robot, allowing use of heuristic priors or learning to enable computationally…

Information-Guided Robotic Maximum Seek-and-Sample in Partially Observable Continuous Environments

Genevieve Flaspohler, Victoria Preston, Anna P. M. Michel +2

We present PLUMES, a planner to localizing and collecting samples at the global maximum of an a priori unknown and partially observable continuous environment. The "maximum-seek-an…
