Emergent Autonomous Drifting for Collision Avoidance in Real-World Winter Driving Scenarios
Elliot Weiss, Michael Thompson, Thomas Lew +1
Real-world collision avoidance is a core motivation for studying the dynamics and control of high sideslip drifting in vehicles, yet the practical benefit of such maneuvers has so…
Boundary Sampling to Learn Predictive Safety Filters via Pontryagin's Maximum Principle
James Dallas, Thomas Lew, John Talbot +3
Safety filters provide a practical approach for enforcing safety constraints in autonomous systems. While learning-based tools scale to high-dimensional systems, their performance…
Vision-Conditioned Variational Bayesian Last Layer Dynamics Models
Paul Brunzema, Thomas Lew, Ray Zhang +3
Agile control of robotic systems often requires anticipating how the environment affects system behavior. For example, a driver must perceive the road ahead to anticipate available…
Cyber Racing Coach: A Haptic Shared Control Framework for Teaching Advanced Driving Skills
Congkai Shen, Siyuan Yu, Yifan Weng +7
This study introduces a haptic shared control framework designed to teach human drivers advanced driving skills. In this context, shared control refers to a driving mode where the…
Spatial Envelope MPC: High Performance Driving without a Reference
Siyuan Yu, Congkai Shen, Yufei Xi +5
This paper presents a novel envelope based model predictive control (MPC) framework designed to enable autonomous vehicles to handle high performance driving across a wide range of…
First, Learn What You Don't Know: Active Information Gathering for Driving at the Limits of Handling
Alexander Davydov, Franck Djeumou, Marcus Greiff +4
Combining data-driven models that adapt online and model predictive control (MPC) has enabled effective control of nonlinear systems. However, when deployed on unstable systems, on…
