Active Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface for the Millimeter-Wave Frequency Band: Design and Measurement Results

no code implementations7 Jun 2023 Hamed Radpour, Markus Hofer, Lukas Walter Mayer, Andreas Hofmann, Martin Schiefer, Thomas Zemen

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) will play a key role to establish reliable low-latency millimeter wave (mmWave) communication links for indoor automation and control applications.

Cooperative Task and Motion Planning for Multi-Arm Assembly Systems

no code implementations4 Mar 2022 Jingkai Chen, Jiaoyang Li, Yijiang Huang, Caelan Garrett, Dawei Sun, Chuchu Fan, Andreas Hofmann, Caitlin Mueller, Sven Koenig, Brian C. Williams

Multi-robot assembly systems are becoming increasingly appealing in manufacturing due to their ability to automatically, flexibly, and quickly construct desired structural designs.

Automatic Curricula via Expert Demonstrations

no code implementations16 Jun 2021 Siyu Dai, Andreas Hofmann, Brian Williams

We propose Automatic Curricula via Expert Demonstrations (ACED), a reinforcement learning (RL) approach that combines the ideas of imitation learning and curriculum learning in order to solve challenging robotic manipulation tasks with sparse reward functions.

Fast-reactive probabilistic motion planning for high-dimensional robots

no code implementations3 Dec 2020 Siyu Dai, Andreas Hofmann, Brian C. Williams

Many real-world robotic operations that involve high-dimensional humanoid robots require fast-reaction to plan disturbances and probabilistic guarantees over collision risks, whereas most probabilistic motion planning approaches developed for car-like robots can not be directly applied to high-dimensional robots.

An Empowerment-based Solution to Robotic Manipulation Tasks with Sparse Rewards

no code implementations15 Oct 2020 Siyu Dai, Wei Xu, Andreas Hofmann, Brian Williams

In order to provide adaptive and user-friendly solutions to robotic manipulation, it is important that the agent can learn to accomplish tasks even if they are only provided with very sparse instruction signals.

Online Risk-Bounded Motion Planning for Autonomous Vehicles in Dynamic Environments

no code implementations4 Apr 2019 Xin Huang, Sungkweon Hong, Andreas Hofmann, Brian C. Williams

In this work, we model the motion planning problem as a partially observable Markov decision process (POMDP) and propose an online system that combines an intent recognition algorithm and a POMDP solver to generate risk-bounded plans for the ego vehicle navigating with a number of dynamic agent vehicles.
