Online Planning for Sparse Ground Target Search from a High-Altitude UAV under Partial Observability
Ashik E Rasul, Hyung-Jin Yoon
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) searching for ground targets from a high altitude face a unique challenge, particularly when the target is already within the field of view but effe…
Expert Switching for Robust AAV Landing: A Dual-Detector Framework in Simulation
Humaira Tasnim, Ashik E Rasul, Bruce Jo +1
Reliable helipad detection is essential for Autonomous Aerial Vehicle (AAV) landing, especially under GPS-denied or visually degraded conditions. While modern detectors such as YOL…
Development and Testing for Perception Based Autonomous Landing of a Long-Range QuadPlane
Ashik E Rasul, Humaira Tasnim, Ji Yu Kim +4
QuadPlanes combine the range efficiency of fixed-wing aircraft with the maneuverability of multi-rotor platforms for long-range autonomous missions. In GPS-denied or cluttered urba…
State Estimation and Control of Dynamic Systems from High-Dimensional Image Data
Ashik E Rasul, Hyung-Jin Yoon
Accurate state estimation is critical for optimal policy design in dynamic systems. However, obtaining true system states is often impractical or infeasible, complicating the polic…
