ArtIAMAS Seminar Series: Risk-Aware Coordination between Aerial and Ground Robots
Pratap Tokekar
Assistant Professor
Maryland Robotics Center

Electrical and Computer Engineering
As autonomous systems are fielded in unknown, dynamic, potentially contested conditions, they will need to operate with partial, uncertain information. Successful long-term deployments will need agents to reason about their energy logistics and require careful coordination between robots with vastly different energetics (e.g., air and ground platforms), which is especially challenging in the face of uncertainty. To make matters complicated, communication between the agents may not always be available. In this talk, I will present our ongoing ArtIAMAS work on risk-aware route planning and coordination algorithms that can reason about uncertainty in a provable fashion to enable long-term autonomous deployments.
