Learning Submodular Objectives for Team Environmental Monitoring

Nils Wilde, Armin Sadeghi, Stephen L. Smith

In this paper, we study the well-known team orienteering problem where a fleet of robots collects rewards by visiting locations. Usually, the rewards are assumed to be known to the…

Scalable Operator Allocation for Multi-Robot Assistance: A Restless Bandit Approach

Abhinav Dahiya, Nima Akbarzadeh, Aditya Mahajan +1

In this paper, we consider the problem of allocating human operators in a system with multiple semi-autonomous robots. Each robot is required to perform an independent sequence of…

Optimal Partitioning of Non-Convex Environments for Minimum Turn Coverage Planning

Megnath Ramesh, Frank Imeson, Baris Fidan +1

In this paper, we tackle the problem of planning an optimal coverage path for a robot operating indoors. Many existing approaches attempt to discourage turns in the path by coverin…

Spatio-Temporal Lattice Planning Using Optimal Motion Primitives

Alexander Botros, Stephen L. Smith

Lattice-based planning techniques simplify the motion planning problem for autonomous vehicles by limiting available motions to a pre-computed set of primitives. These primitives a…

Tunable Trajectory Planner Using G3 Curves

Alexander Botros, Stephen L. Smith

Trajectory planning is commonly used as part of a local planner in autonomous driving. This paper considers the problem of planning a continuous-curvature-rate trajectory between f…

Safety-Critical Control of Stochastic Systems using Stochastic Control Barrier Functions

Chuanzheng Wang, Yiming Meng, Stephen L. Smith +1

Control barrier functions have been widely used for synthesizing safety-critical controls, often via solving quadratic programs. However, the existence of Gaussian-type noise may l…
