New framework tackles trajectory planning under agent uncertainty

Researchers have developed a new framework for interactive trajectory planning that accounts for uncertainty in the decisions of other agents. This approach combines Probably Approximately Correct (PAC) learning with Distributionally Robust (DR) optimization to create a solution that addresses errors introduced by learned decision distributions. The resulting PAC learning-based DR-MPC framework can effectively interpolate between robust Model Predictive Control and omnipotent Stochastic Model Predictive Control, depending on the amount of available data.

    Interactive Trajectory Planning with Learning-based Distributionally Robust Model Predictive Control and Markov Systems

    We investigate interactive trajectory planning subject to uncertainty in the decisions of surrounding agents. To control the ego-agent, we aim to first learn the decision distribution and solve a Stochastic Model Predictive Control (SMPC) problem. To account for errors in the lea…
