In the context of smart cities, autonomous vehicles, such as unmanned delivery vehicles and taxis are gradually gaining acceptance. However, their application scenarios remain significantly fragmented. Typically, an Autonomous Multi-Functional Vehicle (AMFV) is not engaged in other scenarios when id…
The socially-aware navigation system has evolved to adeptly avoid various obstacles while performing multiple tasks, such as point-to-point navigation, human-following, and -guiding. However, a prominent gap persists: in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI), the procedure of communicating commands to robot…
The study of motion control for the fish-like robots in complex fluid fields is of great importance in improving the performance of underwater vehicles, due to its strong maneuverability, propulsion efficiency, and deceptive visual appearance. In this article, a novel learning-based control framewor…
Reward shaping (RS) is a powerful method in reinforcement learning (RL) for overcoming the problem of sparse or uninformative rewards. However, RS typically relies on manually engineered shaping-reward functions whose construc- tion is time-consuming and error-prone. It also requires domain knowledg…
Numerical Partial Differential Equation (PDE) solvers often require discretizing the physical domain by using a mesh. Mesh movement methods provide the capability to improve the accuracy of the numerical solution without introducing extra computational burden to the PDE solver, by increasing mesh re…
This paper presents a problem in power networks that creates an exciting and yet challenging real-world scenario for application of multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL). The emerging trend of decarbonisation is placing excessive stress on power distribution networks. Active voltage control is s…
