Biography
Changes in the world affect the interactions between a robot and its environment and invalidate the robot's existing plan. The first part of this talk will cover the Motion and Teaming Lab's work on algorithms that enable this replanning to happen quickly. The second part of the talk will focus on our lab's work to understand how multiple robots can coordinate, cooperate, and collaborate when communication is unreliable and/or unavailable.
