Robust and Safe Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning with Communication for Autonomous Vehicles: From Simulation to Hardware
Keshawn Smith, Zhili Zhang, H M Sabbir Ahmad +5
Deep multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) has been demonstrated effectively in simulations for multi-robot problems. For autonomous vehicles, the development of vehicle-to-veh…
VLM-UQBench: A Benchmark for Modality-Specific and Cross-Modality Uncertainties in Vision Language Models
Chenyu Wang, Tianle Chen, H. M. Sabbir Ahmad +2
Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is vital for ensuring that vision-language models (VLMs) behave safely and reliably. A central challenge is to localize uncertainty to its source, d…
One Subgoal at a Time: Zero-Shot Generalization to Arbitrary Linear Temporal Logic Requirements in Multi-Task Reinforcement Learning
Zijian Guo, İlker IÅık, H. M. Sabbir Ahmad +1
Generalizing to complex and temporally extended task objectives and safety constraints remains a critical challenge in reinforcement learning (RL). Linear temporal logic (LTL) offe…
Hierarchical Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning with Control Barrier Functions for Safety-Critical Autonomous Systems
H. M. Sabbir Ahmad, Ehsan Sabouni, Alexander Wasilkoff +6
We address the problem of safe policy learning in multi-agent safety-critical autonomous systems. In such systems, it is necessary for each agent to meet the safety requirements at…
Reinforcement Learning-based Receding Horizon Control using Adaptive Control Barrier Functions for Safety-Critical Systems
Ehsan Sabouni, H. M. Sabbir Ahmad, Vittorio Giammarino +3
Optimal control methods provide solutions to safety-critical problems but easily become intractable. Control Barrier Functions (CBFs) have emerged as a popular technique that facil…
