This book presents an overview of formal decision making methods for decentralized
cooperative systems. It is aimed at graduate students and researchers in the fields of …

This article proposes an architecture for an intelligent surveillance system, where the aim is
to mitigate the burden on humans in conventional surveillance systems by incorporating …

Decision making is hard. It often requires reasoning about uncertain environments, partial
observability and action spaces that are too large to enumerate. In such tasks decision …

The majority of reported near mid-air collisions that involve a general aviation aircraft (GA)
occur in the vicinity of non-towered airports. In this paper, we propose a concept for air traffic …

This thesis focuses on the application of Reinforcement Learning (RL) methods to real robot
systems. For that, we create a RL system using the ROS middleware and apply it to a Case …

The presence of children in a social assistive robotics context is particularly challenging for
perception, mainly, in the task of locating them using inherently uncertain sensor data. This …

The majority of midair collisions involve general aviation aircraft, and these accidents tend to
occur in the vicinity of airports. This work proposes a concept for an autonomous air traffic …

This dissertation incorporates coalition formation and probabilistic planning towards a
domain-independent automated planning solution scalable to multiple heterogeneous …

Deploying robots in hazardous situations reduces human exposure to dangerous
environments and increases the efficiency of responding to these incidents. Examples of …
