Despite recent progress improving the efficiency and quality of motion planning, planning collision-free and dynamically-feasible trajectories in partially-mapped environments remains challenging, since constantly replanning as unseen obstacles are revealed during navigation both incurs significant computational expense and can introduce problematic oscillatory behavior. To improve the quality of motion planning in partial maps, this paper develops a framework that augments sampling-based motion planning to leverage a high-level discrete layer and prior solutions to guide motion-tree expansion during replanning, affording both (i) faster planning and (ii) improved solution coherence. Our framework shows significant improvements in runtime and solution distance when compared with other sampling-based motion planners.

We consider robot learning in the context of shared autonomy, where control of the system can switch between a human teleoperator and autonomous control. In this setting we address reinforcement learning, and learning from demonstration, where there is a cost associated with human time. This cost represents the human time required to teleoperate the robot, or recover the robot from failures. For each episode, the agent must choose between requesting human teleoperation, or using one of its autonomous controllers. In our approach, we learn to predict the success probability for each controller, given the initial state of an episode. This is used in a contextual multi-armed bandit algorithm to choose the controller for the episode. A controller is learnt online from demonstrations and reinforcement learning so that autonomous performance improves, and the system becomes less reliant on the teleoperator with more experience. We show that our approach to controller selection reduces the human cost to perform two simulated tasks and a single real-world task.

This paper presents a localization algorithm for autonomous urban vehicles under rain weather conditions. In adverse weather, human drivers anticipate the location of the ego-vehicle based on the control inputs they provide and surrounding road contextual information. Similarly, in our approach for localization in rain weather, we use visual data, along with a global reference path and vehicle motion model for anticipating and better estimating the pose of the ego-vehicle in each frame. The global reference path contains useful road contextual information such as the angle of turn which can be potentially used to improve the localization accuracy especially when sensors are compromised. We experimented on the Oxford Robotcar Dataset and our internal dataset from Singapore to validate our localization algorithm in both clear and rain weather conditions. Our method improves localization accuracy by 50.83% in rain weather and 34.32% in clear weather when compared to baseline algorithms.

This paper presents a Predictive Maneuver Planning with Deep Reinforcement Learning (PMP-DRL) model for maneuver planning. Traditional rule-based maneuver planning approaches often have to improve their abilities to handle the variabilities of real-world driving scenarios. By learning from its experience, a Reinforcement Learning (RL)-based driving agent can adapt to changing driving conditions and improve its performance over time. Our proposed approach combines a predictive model and an RL agent to plan for comfortable and safe maneuvers. The predictive model is trained using historical driving data to predict the future positions of other surrounding vehicles. The surrounding vehicles' past and predicted future positions are embedded in context-aware grid maps. At the same time, the RL agent learns to make maneuvers based on this spatio-temporal context information. Performance evaluation of PMP-DRL has been carried out using simulated environments generated from publicly available NGSIM US101 and I80 datasets. The training sequence shows the continuous improvement in the driving experiences. It shows that proposed PMP-DRL can learn the trade-off between safety and comfortability. The decisions generated by the recent imitation learning-based model are compared with the proposed PMP-DRL for unseen scenarios. The results clearly show that PMP-DRL can handle complex real-world scenarios and make better comfortable and safe maneuver decisions than rule-based and imitative models.

Over the last decade, the use of autonomous drone systems for surveying, search and rescue, or last-mile delivery has increased exponentially. With the rise of these applications comes the need for highly robust, safety-critical algorithms which can operate drones in complex and uncertain environments. Additionally, flying fast enables drones to cover more ground which in turn increases productivity and further strengthens their use case. One proxy for developing algorithms used in high-speed navigation is the task of autonomous drone racing, where researchers program drones to fly through a sequence of gates and avoid obstacles as quickly as possible using onboard sensors and limited computational power. Speeds and accelerations exceed over 80 kph and 4 g respectively, raising significant challenges across perception, planning, control, and state estimation. To achieve maximum performance, systems require real-time algorithms that are robust to motion blur, high dynamic range, model uncertainties, aerodynamic disturbances, and often unpredictable opponents. This survey covers the progression of autonomous drone racing across model-based and learning-based approaches. We provide an overview of the field, its evolution over the years, and conclude with the biggest challenges and open questions to be faced in the future.

When is heterogeneity in the composition of an autonomous robotic team beneficial and when is it detrimental? We investigate and answer this question in the context of a minimally viable model that examines the role of heterogeneous speeds in perimeter defense problems, where defenders share a total allocated speed budget. We consider two distinct problem settings and develop strategies based on dynamic programming and on local interaction rules. We present a theoretical analysis of both approaches and our results are extensively validated using simulations. Interestingly, our results demonstrate that the viability of heterogeneous teams depends on the amount of information available to the defenders. Moreover, our results suggest a universality property: across a wide range of problem parameters the optimal ratio of the speeds of the defenders remains nearly constant.

Autonomous driving has achieved a significant milestone in research and development over the last decade. There is increasing interest in the field as the deployment of self-operating vehicles on roads promises safer and more ecologically friendly transportation systems. With the rise of computationally powerful artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, autonomous vehicles can sense their environment with high precision, make safe real-time decisions, and operate more reliably without human interventions. However, intelligent decision-making in autonomous cars is not generally understandable by humans in the current state of the art, and such deficiency hinders this technology from being socially acceptable. Hence, aside from making safe real-time decisions, the AI systems of autonomous vehicles also need to explain how these decisions are constructed in order to be regulatory compliant across many jurisdictions. Our study sheds a comprehensive light on developing explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) approaches for autonomous vehicles. In particular, we make the following contributions. First, we provide a thorough overview of the present gaps with respect to explanations in the state-of-the-art autonomous vehicle industry. We then show the taxonomy of explanations and explanation receivers in this field. Thirdly, we propose a framework for an architecture of end-to-end autonomous driving systems and justify the role of XAI in both debugging and regulating such systems. Finally, as future research directions, we provide a field guide on XAI approaches for autonomous driving that can improve operational safety and transparency towards achieving public approval by regulators, manufacturers, and all engaged stakeholders.

Deep reinforcement learning algorithms can perform poorly in real-world tasks due to the discrepancy between source and target environments. This discrepancy is commonly viewed as the disturbance in transition dynamics. Many existing algorithms learn robust policies by modeling the disturbance and applying it to source environments during training, which usually requires prior knowledge about the disturbance and control of simulators. However, these algorithms can fail in scenarios where the disturbance from target environments is unknown or is intractable to model in simulators. To tackle this problem, we propose a novel model-free actor-critic algorithm -- namely, state-conservative policy optimization (SCPO) -- to learn robust policies without modeling the disturbance in advance. Specifically, SCPO reduces the disturbance in transition dynamics to that in state space and then approximates it by a simple gradient-based regularizer. The appealing features of SCPO include that it is simple to implement and does not require additional knowledge about the disturbance or specially designed simulators. Experiments in several robot control tasks demonstrate that SCPO learns robust policies against the disturbance in transition dynamics.

The accurate and interpretable prediction of future events in time-series data often requires the capturing of representative patterns (or referred to as states) underpinning the observed data. To this end, most existing studies focus on the representation and recognition of states, but ignore the changing transitional relations among them. In this paper, we present evolutionary state graph, a dynamic graph structure designed to systematically represent the evolving relations (edges) among states (nodes) along time. We conduct analysis on the dynamic graphs constructed from the time-series data and show that changes on the graph structures (e.g., edges connecting certain state nodes) can inform the occurrences of events (i.e., time-series fluctuation). Inspired by this, we propose a novel graph neural network model, Evolutionary State Graph Network (EvoNet), to encode the evolutionary state graph for accurate and interpretable time-series event prediction. Specifically, Evolutionary State Graph Network models both the node-level (state-to-state) and graph-level (segment-to-segment) propagation, and captures the node-graph (state-to-segment) interactions over time. Experimental results based on five real-world datasets show that our approach not only achieves clear improvements compared with 11 baselines, but also provides more insights towards explaining the results of event predictions.
