In this paper we consider physics-informed detection of terrain material change in radar imagery (e.g., shifts in permittivity, roughness or moisture). We propose a lightweight electromagnetic (EM) forward model to simulate bi-temporal single-look complex (SLC) images from labelled material maps. On…
In complex tasks (beyond a single targeted controller) requiring robots to collaborate with multiple human users, two challenges arise: complex tasks are often composed of multiple behaviors which can only be evaluated as a collective (a meta-behavior) and user preferences often differ between indiv
We propose an algorithm for generating minimum-snap trajectories for quadrotors with linear computational complexity with respect to the number of segments in the spline trajectory. Our algorithm is numerically stable for large numbers of segments and is able to generate trajectories of more than 50…
The paper considers the efficient selection of leader agents in a swarm running a distributed bearing-compass formation controller. The leaders apply external control which induces translation and scaling of the formation, providing manipulation methods useful to a human operator. The selection algo…
