  • Realizable Path Planning and Execution for Robotic Systems

    Creator:
    Jones, Dylan A.
    Abstract:
    Performing autonomous robotic tasks in the field, such as ocean monitoring and aerial surveillance, requires planning and executing paths in dynamic environments. In these uncertain and changing environments, it is not uncommon to see a large difference between the path planned by the robotic vehicle and the path that the...

  • Counterfactual thinking applied to multiagent systems

    Creator:
    Zerbel, Nicholas
    Abstract:
    Multiagent approaches are well suited to designing autonomous solutions for systems that feature complex interactions between many individuals such as in autonomous traffic systems and multi-robot exploration systems. However, creating autonomous agents that function effectively in these systems is a challenging task. In these complex environments, agents need informative reward...

  • Privacy-Sensitive Robotics

    Creator:
    Rueben, Matthew R.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on personal privacy in human-robot interaction, which we call "privacy-sensitive robotics." Our understanding of "privacy" is very broad, including not just information privacy but also physical, psychological, and social privacy. We begin by surveying the scholarly literature on privacy and talking about why it applies to interactions...

  • Geometry of Locomotion

    Creator:
    Ramasamy, Suresh
    Abstract:
    Many animals and robots move through the world by coupling cyclical changes in shape called gaits to an interaction with the environment. Because mobility is an important aspect of such robots, a key metric when evaluating design and performance of mobile robots is the efficiency of their optimal gaits. The...

  • Towards Annotation-Efficient Video Representation Learning

    Creator:
    Patravali, Jay Sanjay
    Abstract:
    Labeling videos is costly, time-consuming and tedious. These costs can escalate in applications such as medical diagnosis or autonomous driving where we need domain expertise for annotation. Few-shot action recognition aims to solve this problem by annotation-efficient learning mechanisms. This thesis presents MetaUVFS as the first Unsupervised Meta-learning algorithm for...
