LLM-Assisted Coalition Formation for Cooperative Perception in Autonomous Driving
Ahmad Sarlak, Hao Wang, Rahul Amin +1
Cooperative perception (CP) enables connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) to share complementary observations for safer navigation, but practical deployment is limited by bandwidth…
From Talking Words to Sharing Thoughts: Scalable Multi-LLM Aggregation via Structured Message Passing
Niloufar Mehrabi, Sayed Pedram Haeri Boroujeni, Abolfazl Razi
The emergence of specialized, domain-tuned Large Language Models (LLMs) has demonstrated that smaller models can achieve expert-level performance in specific tasks, while strugglin…
Meta-Adaptive Beam Search Planning for Transformer-Based Reinforcement Learning Control of UAVs with Overhead Manipulators under Flight Disturbances
Hazim Alzorgan, Sayed Pedram Haeri Boroujeni, Abolfazl Razi
Drones equipped with overhead manipulators offer unique capabilities for inspection, maintenance, and contact-based interaction. However, the motion of the drone and its manipulato…
