We develop a new motion planning algorithm for a variant of a Dubins car with binary left/right steering and apply it to steerable needles, a new class of flexible beveltip medica...

We describe a mobile robot system, designed to assist residents of an retirement facility. This system is being developed to respond to an aging population and a predicted shortage...
Agents often have to construct plans that obey resource limits for continuous resources whose consumption can only be characterized by probability distributions. While Markov Deci...
We consider the problem of efficiently learning optimal control policies and value functions over large state spaces in an online setting in which estimates must be available afte...
Abstract— This paper proposes a simulation-based active policy learning algorithm for finite-horizon, partially-observed sequential decision processes. The algorithm is tested i...
