Researchers have developed a novel transformer-based warm-starting method to improve the efficiency and robustness of trajectory generation for space manipulators. This approach specifically targets the computationally intensive stage of attitude and manipulator torque allocation during the terminal approach to tumbling objects. By utilizing sequence models, the framework significantly reduces the number of iterations and runtime required by sequential convex programming (SCP), leading to more efficient and reliable control.
