Free-Space Ellipsoid Graphs for Multi-Agent Target Monitoring Open
We apply a novel framework for decomposing and reasoning about free space in an environment to a multi-agent persistent monitoring problem. Our decomposition method represents free space as a collection of ellipsoids associated with a weig…
Multi-robot Task Assignment for Aerial Tracking with Viewpoint Constraints Open
We address the problem of assigning a team of drones to autonomously capture a set desired shots of a dynamic target in the presence of obstacles. We present a two-stage planning pipeline that generates offline an assignment of drone to sh…
Stochastic Dynamic Games in Belief Space Open
Information gathering while interacting with other agents under sensing and motion uncertainty is critical in domains such as driving, service robots, racing, or surveillance. The interests of agents may be at odds with others, resulting i…
Social behavior for autonomous vehicles Open
Significance We present a framework that integrates social psychology tools into controller design for autonomous vehicles. Our key insight utilizes Social Value Orientation (SVO), quantifying an agent’s degree of selfishness or altruism, …
Probabilistic Risk Metrics for Navigating Occluded Intersections Open
Among traffic accidents in the USA, 23% of fatal and 32% of non-fatal incidents occurred at intersections. For driver assistance systems, intersection navigation remains a difficult problem that is critically important to increasing driver…
The Extreme Effects of ‘Not-so-minor’ Concussions:Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy Literature Review Open
Many of the concerns that people have with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) have already been researched for almost a century, but recently, there has been a big push in CTE research. Previous research was done on boxing and football…
