Ergodic Control and Controlled Diffusion for Robot Learning: Review and Tutorial

Max Muchen Sun, Cem Bilaloglu, Ananya Rao +6

Diffusion learning leverages the statistical mechanism of diffusion processes for learning, reasoning, and inferring complex distributions from data. Recent advances in diffusion l…

Multi-Agent Ergodic Exploration under Smoke-Based, Time-Varying Sensor Visibility Constraints

Elena Wittemyer, Ananya Rao, Ian Abraham +1

In this work, we consider the problem of multi-agent informative path planning (IPP) for robots whose sensor visibility continuously changes as a consequence of a time-varying natu…

Multi-Objective Sparse Sensing with Ergodic Optimization

Ananya Rao, Howie Choset

We consider a search problem where a robot has one or more types of sensors, each suited to detecting different types of targets or target information. Often, information in the fo…

Analysis of Interior Rubble Void Spaces at Champlain Towers South Collapse

Ananya Rao, Robin Murphy, David Merrick +1

The 2021 Champlain Towers South Condominiums collapse in Surfside, Florida, resulted 98 deaths. Nine people are thought to have survived the initial collapse, and might have been r…
