Credibility Trilemma in Polymatroidal Service Markets
Lauri Lovén, Sujit Gujar, Kalle Timperi +4
Mechanism-mediated service markets with polymatroidal feasibility admit efficient, dominant-strategy incentive-compatible (DSIC) allocation, but these guarantees implicitly assume…
Relating Reinforcement Learning to Dynamic Programming-Based Planning
Filip V. Georgiev, Kalle G. Timperi, Başak Sakçak +1
This paper bridges some of the gap between optimal planning and reinforcement learning (RL), both of which share roots in dynamic programming applied to sequential decision making…
-neighbourhoods in the Plane with a Nowhere-smooth Boundary
Jeroen S. W. Lamb, Martin Rasmussen, Kalle G. Timperi
We give an example of a planar set for which the boundary of its -neighbourhood $E_\varepsilon = \{x \in \mathbb{R}^2…
Minimally sufficient structures for information-feedback policies
Basak Sakcak, Vadim K. Weinstein, Kalle G. Timperi +1
In this paper, we consider robotic tasks which require a desirable outcome to be achieved in the physical world that the robot is embedded in and interacting with. Accomplishing th…
Universal Plans: One Action Sequence to Solve Them All!
Kalle G. Timperi, Alexander J. LaValle, Steven M. LaValle
This paper introduces the notion of a universal plan, which when executed, is guaranteed to solve all planning problems in a category, regardless of the obstacles, initial state, a…
An Internal Model Principle For Robots
Vadim K. Weinstein, Tamara Alshammari, Kalle G. Timperi +2
When designing a robot's internal system, one often makes assumptions about the structure of the intended environment of the robot. One may even assign meaning to various internal…
From Virtual Reality to the Emerging Discipline of Perception Engineering
Steven M. LaValle, Evan G. Center, Timo Ojala +6
This paper makes the case that a powerful new discipline, which we term perception engineering, is steadily emerging. It follows from a progression of ideas that involve creating i…
A Mathematical Characterization of Minimally Sufficient Robot Brains
Basak Sakcak, Kalle G. Timperi, Vadim Weinstein +1
This paper addresses the lower limits of encoding and processing the information acquired through interactions between an internal system (robot algorithms or software) and an exte…
Smooth Persistence of Attractors for Set-Valued Dynamical Systems: A Boundary Map Approach
K. Kourliouros, J. S. W. Lamb, M. Rasmussen +3
We study the problem of persistence of attractors with smooth boundary for a class of set-valued dynamical systems that naturally arise in the context of random and control dynamic…
On Boundaries of -neighbourhoods of Planar Sets, Part II: Global Structure and Curvature
Jeroen S. W. Lamb, Martin Rasmussen, Kalle Timperi
We study the global topological structure and smoothness of the boundaries of -neighbourhoods $E_\varepsilon = \{x \in \mathbb{R}^2 \, : \, \textrm{dist}(x, E) \leq \v…
On Boundaries of -neighbourhoods of Planar Sets: Singularities, Global Structure, and Curvature
Jeroen S. W. Lamb, Martin Rasmussen, Kalle G. Timperi
We study the geometry, topological properties and smoothness of the boundaries of closed -neighbourhoods $E_\varepsilon = \{x \in \mathbb{R}^2 \, : \, \textrm{dist}(x,…
