Effective hospital capacity planning can not only significantly enhance the capability and effectiveness of the treatment provided to patients during a bioterrorist attack but can...
In this paper we present an overview of recent developments in the plan-based control of autonomous robots. We identify computational principles that enable autonomous robots to a...
A mobile robot acting in the world is faced with a large amount of sensory data and uncertainty in its action outcomes. Indeed, almost all interesting sequential decision-making d...
Goal-directed Markov Decision Process models (GDMDPs) are good models for many decision-theoretic planning tasks. They have been used in conjunction with two different reward stru...
Consider the task of a mobile robot autonomously navigating through an environment while detecting and mapping objects of interest using a noisy object detector. The robot must re...
