Transformer-Informed Trajectory Optimization for Relative Motion in Cislunar Orbits
Walter J. Manuel, Yuji Takubo, Simone D'Amico
Autonomous spacecraft guidance and control requires a fast solution to non-convex trajectory optimization, which can be accelerated by providing a near-optimal initial guess to an…
