Optimistic Distributed Submodular Coordination with Applications to Multi-Target Tracking with Multiple Robots

Pranjal Sharma, Atharva Navsalkar, Zirui Xu +1

We provide a distributed online algorithm for multi-agent submodular coordination in bandit environments, i.e., environments whose evolution is unknown a priori and may even adapt…

End-to-End Learning Framework for Solving Non-Markovian Optimal Control

Xiaole Zhang, Peiyu Zhang, Xiongye Xiao +4

Integer-order calculus often falls short in capturing the long-range dependencies and memory effects found in many real-world processes. Fractional calculus addresses these gaps vi…
