  • Learning-based Techniques for Fast and Robust Motion Planning

    Creator:
    Chow, Scott
    Abstract:
    Motion planning is a cornerstone of autonomous robots, enabling robots to safely and efficiently perform tasks such as package delivery, infrastructure inspection, and manipulation. However, as the field of robotics matures, robotic systems are being developed that (1) are challenging to analytically model, (2) require computationally expensive model-based controllers, and...
