The Tactical Driver Behavior modeling problem requires an understanding of driver actions in complicated urban scenarios from rich multimodal signals including video, LiDAR and CAN signal data streams. However, the majority of deep learning research is focused either on learning the vehicle/environm
We proposed a multimodal end-to-end policy based on deep reinforcement learning (DRL) that leverages sensor fusion to reduced performance drops in noisy environment from 50% to 10% compared with the baseline and makes the policy functional even in the face of partial sensor failure by using a novel
Conventional path planning algorithms compute a single path through the configuration space. There is no guarantee that a physical robot will be able to track the trajectory while avoiding collisions, particularly in the presence of environmental perturbations and errors in the process model. Sequen…
Inertial reorientation of airborne articulated bodies has been an active area of research in the robotics community, as this behavior can help guide dynamic robots to a safe landing with minimal damage. The main objective of this work is emulating the aggressive and large angle correction maneuvers,…
Stair Climbing is a key functionality desired for robots deployed in Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) scenarios. A novel compliant modular robot was proposed earlier to climb steep and big obstacles. This work extends the functionality of this robot to ascend and descend stairs of dimensions that are…
