Learning Safe Humanoid Navigation from Reduced Order Models
William D. Compton, Zachary Olkin, Ryan Bena +1
Research in humanoid robotics has achieved rapid progress in locomotion, and recent results have pushed the boundary on autonomous navigation. We demonstrate that a standard single…
Full-Body Dynamic Safety for Robot Manipulators: 3D Poisson Safety Functions for CBF-Based Safety Filters
Meg Wilkinson, Gilbert Bahati, Ryan M. Bena +3
Collision avoidance for robotic manipulators requires enforcing full-body safety constraints in high-dimensional configuration spaces. Control Barrier Function (CBF) based safety f…
Decoding Defensive Coverage Responsibilities in American Football Using Factorized Attention Based Transformer Models
Kevin Song, Evan Diewald, Ornob Siddiquee +4
Defensive coverage schemes in the National Football League (NFL) represent complex tactical patterns requiring coordinated assignments among defenders who must react dynamically to…
Safe-SAGE: Social-Semantic Adaptive Guidance for Safe Engagement through Laplace-Modulated Poisson Safety Functions
Lizhi Yang, Ryan M. Bena, Meg Wilkinson +4
Traditional safety-critical control methods, such as control barrier functions, suffer from semantic blindness, exhibiting the same behavior around obstacles regardless of contextu…
Layered Safety: Enhancing Autonomous Collision Avoidance via Multistage CBF Safety Filters
Erina Yamaguchi, Ryan M. Bena, Gilbert Bahati +1
This paper presents a general end-to-end framework for constructing robust and reliable layered safety filters that can be leveraged to perform dynamic collision avoidance over a b…
