Autonomous agents often operate in scenarios where the state is partially observed. In addition to maximizing their cumulative reward, agents must execute complex tasks with rich temporal and logical structures. These tasks can be expressed…
This paper develops an exact solution framework for the choice-based time slot management problem under mixed logit demand in attended home delivery systems. The problem jointly optimizes delivery slot offerings, price discounts, and…
In this paper, we present a novel RRT*-based strategy for generating kinodynamically feasible paths that satisfy temporal logic specifications. Our approach integrates a robustness metric for Linear Temporal Logics (LTL) with the system's…
Several recent works address the impact of inexact oracles in the convergence analysis of modern first-order optimization techniques, e.g. Bregman Proximal Gradient and Prox-Linear methods as well as their accelerated variants, extending…
This paper studies an optimal control problem for continuous-time stochastic systems subject to reachability objectives specified in a subclass of metric interval temporal logic specifications, a temporal logic with real-time constraints.…
The Logical Execution Time (LET) programming model has recently received considerable attention, particularly because of its timing and dataflow determinism. In LET, task computation appears always to take the same amount of time (called…
We study an optimal intervention problem on the linear threshold model (LTM) in which a social planner aims to design minimal-cost interventions that modify the agents' thresholds, under the constraint that at least a predefined fraction of…
We study the reasoning behavior of large language models (LLMs) under limited computation budgets. In such settings, producing useful partial solutions quickly is often more practical than exhaustive reasoning, which incurs high inference…
This paper studies the non-preemptive single-machine scheduling problem with heterogeneous release times and processing times, with the objective of minimizing total waiting time. The problem is known to be NP-hard. By modeling machine idle…
In the university timetabling problem, sometimes additions or cancellations of course sections occur shortly before the beginning of the academic term, necessitating last-minute teaching staffing changes. We present a decision-making…
This paper proposes Proximal Policy Optimization with Linear Temporal Logic Constraints (PPO-LTL), a framework that integrates safety constraints written in LTL into PPO for safe reinforcement learning. LTL constraints offer rigorous…
In this paper, we consider the automated planning of optimal paths for a robotic team satisfying a high level mission specification. Each robot in the team is modeled as a weighted transition system where the weights have associated…
Classically, the edit distance of two length-$n$ strings can be computed in $O(n^2)$ time, whereas an $O(n^{2-\epsilon})$-time procedure would falsify the Orthogonal Vectors Hypothesis. If the edit distance does not exceed $k$, the running…
We develop a timeout based extension of propositional linear temporal logic (which we call TLTL) to specify timing properties of timeout based models of real time systems. TLTL formulas explicitly refer to a running global clock together…
We reformulate a class of non-linear stochastic optimal control problems introduced by Todorov (2007) as a Kullback-Leibler (KL) minimization problem. As a result, the optimal control computation reduces to an inference computation and…
It has been shown that the parallel Lattice Linear Predicate (LLP) algorithm solves many combinatorial optimization problems such as the shortest path problem, the stable marriage problem and the market clearing price problem. In this…
We consider the problem of locating a nearest descriptor system of prescribed reduced order to a descriptor system with large order with respect to the ${\mathcal L}_\infty$ norm. Widely employed approaches such as the balanced truncation…
In this paper, we consider the problem of optimally allocating tasks, expressed as global Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) specifications, to teams of heterogeneous mobile robots. The robots are classified in different types that capture their…
In this paper, we study the predict-then-optimize problem where the output of a machine learning prediction task is used as the input of some downstream optimization problem, say, the objective coefficient vector of a linear program. The…
We address the problem of policy evaluation in discounted Markov decision processes, and provide instance-dependent guarantees on the $\ell_\infty$-error under a generative model. We establish both asymptotic and non-asymptotic versions of…
