Advancing MAPF Toward the Real World: A Scalable Multi-Agent Realistic Testbed (SMART)

RA-L 2026

We present Scalable Multi-Agent Realistic Testbed SMART, a realistic and efficient software tool for evaluating Multi-Agent Path Finding (MAPF) algorithms. MAPF focuses on planning collision-free paths for a group of robots. While state-of-the-art MAPF planners can plan paths for hundreds of robots

V2V-GoT: Vehicle-To-Vehicle Cooperative Autonomous Driving with Multimodal Large Language Models and Graph-Of-Thoughts

ICRA 2026poster

Current state-of-the-art autonomous vehicles could face safety critical situations when their local sensors are occluded by large objects on the road nearby. Vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) cooperative autonomous driving is proposed to address this problem. More recent work further adopts a new approach th…

V2V-LLM: Vehicle-To-Vehicle Cooperative Autonomous Driving with Multimodal Large Language Models

ICRA 2026poster

Current autonomous driving vehicles rely mainly on their individual sensors to understand surrounding scenes and plan for future trajectories, which can be unreliable when the sensors are malfunctioning or occluded. To address this problem, cooperative perception methods via vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V)…

Probabilistic 3D Multi-Object Cooperative Tracking for Autonomous Driving via Differentiable Multi-Sensor Kalman Filter

ICRA 2024poster

Current state-of-the-art autonomous driving vehicles mainly rely on each individual sensor system to perform perception tasks. Such a framework’s reliability could be limited by occlusion or sensor failure. To address this issue, more recent research proposes using vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communica…

Incorporating Queueing Dynamics into Schedule-Driven Traffic Control

IJCAI 2021poster

Key to the effectiveness of schedule-driven approaches to real-time traffic control is an ability to accurately predict when sensed vehicles will arrive at and pass through the intersection. Prior work in schedule-driven traffic control has assumed a static vehicle arrival model. However, this stati…

Cooperative Schedule-Driven Intersection Control with Connected and Autonomous Vehicles

IROS 2019poster

Recent work in decentralized, schedule-driven traffic control has demonstrated the ability to improve the efficiency of traffic flow in complex urban road networks. In this approach, a scheduling agent is associated with each intersection. Each agent senses the traffic approaching its intersection a…
