Vision-Servoed Localization and Behavior-Based Planning for an Autonomous Quadruped Legged Robot
Planning for real robots to act in dynamic and uncertain environments is a challenging problem. A complete model of the world is not viable and an integration of deliberation and ...

Merging Plans with Quantitative Temporal Constraints, Temporally Extended Actions, and Conditional Branches
We develop an algorithm for merging plans that are represented in a richly expressive language. Speci cally, weare concerned with plans that have i quantitative temporal constrain...

Exploiting State Constraints in Heuristic State-Space Planning
In the last years, some very promising domain independent heuristic state-space planners for STRIPS worlds, like ASP/HSP, HSPr and GRT, have been presented. These planners achieve...

Using Generic Preferences to Incrementally Improve Plan Quality
We describe a methodology for representing and optimizing user preferences on plans. Our approach differs from previous work on plan optimization in that we employ a generalizatio...

Representations of Decision-Theoretic Planning Tasks
Goal-directed Markov Decision Process models (GDMDPs) are good models for many decision-theoretic planning tasks. They have been used in conjunction with two different reward stru...
