FBCRI Based Real-time Path Planning for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Unknown Environments with Uncertainty
2013
ROBOT
In view of the deterministic decisions and the uncertain states of a UAV (unmanned air vehicle), chance constraints are adopted to probabilistically guarantee the UAV's safety at a required level. ...
Simulation results in representative scenes prove that the method is able to rapidly generate convergent paths in obstacle-rich environments, as well as highly improve the path quality with respect to ...
Most familiar realtime methods address rapid escape cases under deterministic conditions on threat boundaries or flight states, such as RRTs [5, 14] , mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) based methods ...

Autonomous Agents and Multi-Agent Systems
Hence, rescue missions may need to be re-planned as new information comes in, tasks are completed, or new hazards are discovered. ...
Moreover, responders have to operate in highly uncertain and dynamic environments where new tasks may appear and hazards may be spreading across the disaster space. ...

arXiv
pre-print
A set of about 80 researchers, practitioners, and federal agency program managers participated in the NSF-sponsored Grand Challenges in Resilience Workshop held on Purdue campus on March 19-21, 2019. ...
We focus on some autonomous systems in the near horizon (autonomous ground and aerial vehicles) and also a little more distant (autonomous rescue and relief). ...
For other applications, straightforward detection mechanisms should be used to judge how easy is it to detect the presence of an attack. 2: Value of knowledge in adversarial and uncertain environments. ...
