Stabilizing a spherical pendulum on a quadrotor
Aradhana Nayak, Ravi Banavar, D. H. S Maithripala
In this article we design a backstepping control law based on geometric principles to swing up a spherical pendulum mounted on a moving quadrotor. The available degrees of freedom…
A Decentralized Policy with Logarithmic Regret for a Class of Multi-Agent Multi-Armed Bandit Problems with Option Unavailability Constraints and Stochastic Communication Protocols
Pathmanathan Pankayaraj, D. H. S. Maithripala, J. M. Berg
This paper considers a multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem in which multiple mobile agents receive rewards by sampling from a collection of spatially dispersed stochastic processes, c…
A Decentralized Communication Policy for Multi Agent Multi Armed Bandit Problems
Pathmanathan Pankayaraj, D. H. S. Maithripala
This paper proposes a novel policy for a group of agents to, individually as well as collectively, solve a multi armed bandit (MAB) problem. The policy relies solely on the informa…
A bundle framework for observer design on smooth manifolds with symmetry
Anant A. Joshi, D. H. S. Maithripala, Ravi N. Banavar
The article presents a bundle framework for nonlinear observer design on a manifold with a Lie group action. The group action on the manifold decomposes the manifold to a quotient…
Heterogeneous Stochastic Interactions for Multiple Agents in a Multi-armed Bandit Problem
Udari Madhushani, Naomi Ehrich Leonard
We define and analyze a multi-agent multi-armed bandit problem in which decision-making agents can observe the choices and rewards of their neighbors. Neighbors are defined by a ne…
Asymptotic Allocation Rules for a Class of Dynamic Multi-armed Bandit Problems
T. W. U. Madhushani, D. H. S. Maithripala, N. E. Leonard
This paper presents a class of Dynamic Multi-Armed Bandit problems where the reward can be modeled as the noisy output of a time varying linear stochastic dynamic system that satis…
