Risk Assessment of Warship (Automatic) Navigation Plan Based on SVM

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The automatic control of naval vessels is based on the navigational plan, and the navigational safety depends on the scientific nature of the plan, so the risk assessment of the navigational plan is very important.

Navigation with Probabilistic Safety Constraints: A Convex Formulation

open access: yes2022 American Control Conference (ACC), 2022
We consider the problem of navigation with safety constraints. The safety constraints are probabilistic, where a given set is assigned a degree of safety, a number between zero and one, with zero being safe and one being unsafe. The deterministic unsafe set will arise as a particular case of the proposed probabilistic description of safety.

The Future of Research in Cognitive Robotics: Foundation Models or Developmental Cognitive Models?

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Research in cognitive robotics founded on principles of developmental psychology and enactive cognitive science would yield what we seek in autonomous robots: the ability to perceive its environment, learn from experience, anticipate the outcome of events, act to pursue goals, and adapt to changing circumstances without resorting to training with ...
