— We present a global vector field computation algorithm in configuration spaces for smooth feedback motion planning. Our algorithm performs approximate cell decomposition in t...
— Given a robot model and a class of admissible environments, this paper provides a framework for automatically and verifiably composing controllers that satisfy high level task...
