We study solution discovery, where the goal is to obtain a feasible solution to a problem from an initial configuration by a bounded sequence of local moves. In many applications, however, the graph that defines which vertex sets are…

Predicting human motion in unstructured and dynamic environments is difficult as humans naturally exhibit complex behaviors that can change drastically from one environment to the next. In order to alleviate this issue, we propose to encode…
