Many applications in machine learning and decision-making rely on procedures to aggregate human preferences.In such tasks, individual express ordinal preferences over a set of items through votes, ratings, or pairwise comparisons. We then summarize their collective preferences as a ranking. Standard…
Current motion planning approaches rely on binary collision checking to evaluate the validity of a state and thereby dictate where the robot is allowed to move. This approach leaves little room for robots to engage in contact with an object, as is often necessary when operating in densely cluttered…
Real-time control is an essential aspect of safe robot operation in the real world with dynamic objects. We present a framework for the analysis of object-aware con-trollers, methods for altering a robot's motion to anticipate and avoid possible collisions. This framework is focused on three design…
