OpenNERO is an open source game platform designed for game AI research. The software package combines features commonly available in modern game engines (such as 3D graphics, phys...
Scheduling the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) requires modeling and minimizing the buildup of angular momentum of the spacecraft. Accounting for momentum management is expected...
High-level actions (HLAs) lie at the heart of hierarchical planning. Typically, an HLA admits multiple refinements into primitive action sequences. Correct descriptions of the ef...
Autonomous systems operating in real-world environments must be able to plan, schedule, and execute missions while robustly adapting to uncertainty and disturbances. Previous work...

This paper summarizes research on a new emerging framework for learning to plan using the Markov decision process model (MDP). In this paradigm, two approaches to learning to plan...

A great deal of research has addressed the problem of generating optimal plans, but these plans are of limited use in circumstances where noisy sensors, unanticipated exogenous ac...
Many scheduling problems reside in uncertain and dynamic environments – tasks have a nonzero probability of failure and may need to be rescheduled. In these cases, an optimized ...

We consider the problem of finding an n-agent jointpolicy for the optimal finite-horizon control of a decentralized Pomdp (Dec-Pomdp). This is a problem of very high complexity ...
