End-to-end (E2E) autonomous driving presents a promising approach for translating perceptual inputs directly into driving actions. However, prohibitive annotation costs and temporal data quality degra…
Range anxiety and long recharging times remain critical barriers to electric vehicle adoption. Dynamic Inductive Charging (DIC) offers a compelling solution by enabling wireless power transfer while d…
Learned driving agents often degrade when deployed in unseen environments. This paper studies a deliberately bounded instance of that problem in the CARLA simulator: zero-shot transfer of a closed-loo…
We present the Field of Safe Motion (FSM), a quantitative safety model for determining whether a driver maintains a collision-free escape route, or "out," at any given moment by accounting for that dr…
We present a priority-aware intelligent lane change advisory system based on multi-agent federated reinforcement learning, namely PALCAS, for autonomous vehicles (AVs). While existing lane-change appr…
Origami-inspired robotic grippers have shown promising potential for object manipulation tasks due to their compact volume and mechanical flexibility. However, robust capture of objects with random sh…
Micro DC brushed motors are widely deployed in battery-powered biomedical systems, where limited energy budgets and variable physiological loading impose stringent efficiency and safety constraints. H…
End-to-end autonomous driving planners typically generate trajectories from current observations alone. However, real-world driving is highly dynamic, and such reactive planning cannot anticipate futu…
Unlike chatbots, physical AI must act while the world keeps evolving. Therefore, the inter-chunk pause of synchronous executors are fatal for dynamic tasks regardless of how fast the inference is. Asy…
Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) increasingly rely on vision-based perception and learning-based control, necessitating experimental platforms that support realistic hardware-in-the-loop valid…
Inefficient driving behaviors, such as overly conservative yielding, remain a key obstacle to deployment of autonomous vehicles (AVs). Instantaneous driving efficiency metrics are crucial for self-dri…
OpenPodcar2 is a robust, ROS2-interfaced, low-cost, open source hardware and software, autonomous vehicle platform based on an off-the-shelf, hard-canopy, mobility scooter donor vehicle. It is a modif…
This paper presents a trajectory planning method for articulated commercial vehicles, specifically tractor-semitrailers, based on Model Predictive Contouring Control (MPCC). Although MPCC has proven e…
Autonomous driving systems often infer pedestrian yielding behavior from geometric and kinematic cues alone, limiting their ability to reason about visual scene context and age-dependent behavioral va…
Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models are emerging as a unified substrate for embodied intelligence. This shift raises a new class of safety challenges, stemming from the embodied nature of VLA systems,…
In high-conflict mixed-traffic scenarios involving human-driven and autonomous vehicles, most existing autonomous driving systems default to overly conservative behaviors, lack proactive interaction, …
Two-fold redundant sparse arrays possess inbuilt redundancy to tackle single-element failures. This property enables them to perform accurate direction of arrival (DOA) estimation even during single s…
In behavioral cloning (BC), policy performance is fundamentally limited by demonstration data quality. Real-world datasets contain trajectories of varying quality due to operator skill differences, te…
In many applications of state estimation, the process noise is colored; this case is addressed by applying the standard Kalman filter (KF) to dynamics that are augmented with the coloring dynamics. Th…
Multi-modal trajectory generation is essential for safe autonomous driving, yet existing diffusion-based planners suffer from high inference latency due to iterative neural function evaluations. This …
