Parallel Dynamic Programming for Conic Linear Quadratic Control

Luyao Zhang, Gabriel Bravo-Palacios, Brian Plancher +1

Linear Quadratic (LQ) control problems are at the heart of linear control theory and Model Predictive Control (MPC). While performant, standard approaches to solving such problems…

Contingency Planning for Safety-Critical Autonomous Vehicles: A Review and Perspectives

Lei Zheng, Luyao Zhang, Peiqi Yu +4

Contingency planning is the architectural capability that enables autonomous vehicles (AVs) to anticipate and mitigate discrete, high-impact hazards, such as sensor outages and adv…

Parallel Branch Model Predictive Control on GPUs

Luyao Zhang, Chenghuai Lin, Sergio Grammatico

We present a GPU-based solver for trajectory planning problems using branch Model Predictive Control. Building on iterative LQR methods, we adopt a multiple-shooting formulation fo…

Automated Lane Merging via Game Theory and Branch Model Predictive Control

Luyao Zhang, Shaohang Han, Sergio Grammatico

We propose an integrated behavior and motion planning framework for the lane-merging problem. The behavior planner combines search-based planning with game theory to model vehicle…
