A globally optimal algorithm for TTD-MDPs
In this paper, we discuss the use of Targeted Trajectory Distribution Markov Decision Processes (TTD-MDPs)—a variant of MDPs in which the goal is to realize a specified distrib...

Near-Optimal Mobile Robot Recharging with the Rate-Maximizing Forager
We examine the practical problem of a mobile autonomous robot performing a long-duration survey task, during which it must recharge its batteries periodically. We present a scalabl...
