Longitudinal-Motion-Aware Lateral Control for Autonomous Vehicles: A Robust Nonlinear Control Framework
Sixu Li, Nitesh Kumar, Reyshwanth Ganeshan +3
As autonomous vehicles (AVs) operate in increasingly dynamic traffic conditions, lateral control must be performed while longitudinal speed and acceleration vary. Yet many existing…
Privacy-Preserving Decentralized Cooperative Localization with Range-Only Measurements: A Convex Optimization Based Approach
Nitesh Kumar, Reyshwanth Ganeshan, Sixu Li +2
Cooperative localization using range-based measurements is critical for multi-robot systems operating in GPS-denied and unstructured environments. However, traditional cooperative…
Two-Phase Bilevel Search for the Moving-Target Traveling Salesman Problem with Moving Obstacles
Allen George Philip, Anoop Bhat, Sivakumar Rathinam +1
The Moving-Target Traveling Salesman Problem (MT-TSP) seeks a minimum cost trajectory for an agent that departs from a static depot, visits a set of moving targets, each within one…
Optimal Solutions for the Moving Target Vehicle Routing Problem with Obstacles via Lazy Branch and Price
Anoop Bhat, Geordan Gutow, Surya Singh +3
The Moving Target Vehicle Routing Problem with Obstacles (MT-VRP-O) seeks trajectories for several agents that collectively intercept a set of moving targets. Each target has one o…
An Exact Algorithm for Load-Dependent Traveling Salesman Problem for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Package Delivery
Deepak Prakash Kumar, Saurabh Belgaonkar, Sivakumar Rathinam +2
In this article, we present a novel formulation for the load-dependent traveling salesman problem (LD-TSP), in which travel cost (or energy expended) depends on the vehicle's curre…
Optimal Solutions for the Moving Target Vehicle Routing Problem via Branch-and-Price with Relaxed Continuity
Anoop Bhat, Geordan Gutow, Zhongqiang Ren +2
The Moving Target Vehicle Routing Problem (MT-VRP) seeks trajectories for several agents that intercept a set of moving targets, subject to speed, time window, and capacity constra…
