LUCIDGames: Online Unscented Inverse Dynamic Games for Adaptive Trajectory Prediction and Planning

Simon Le Cleac'h, Mac Schwager, Zachary Manchester

Existing game-theoretic planning methods assume that the robot knows the objective functions of the other agents a priori while, in practical scenarios, this is rarely the case. Th…
