Shepherding involves herding a swarm of agents (\emph{sheep}) by another a control agent (\emph{sheepdog}) towards a goal. Multiple approaches have been documented in the literature to model this behaviour. In this paper, we present a…
Motion planners take uncertain information about the environment as an input. The environment information is often quite noisy and has a tendency to contain false positive object detection. State-of-the-art motion planners consider all…
