This study proposes a method for estimating the mechanical parameters of vehicles and bridges and the road unevenness, using only vehicle vibration and position data. In the proposed method, vehicle input and bridge vibration are estimated…

This paper addresses the problem of planning successive Space Debris Collecting missions so that they can be achieved at minimal cost by a generic vehicle. The problem mixes combinatorial optimization to select and order the debris among a…

The Team Orienteering Problem (TOP) is an NP-hard routing problem in which a fleet of identical vehicles aims at collecting rewards (prizes) available at given locations, while satisfying restrictions on the travel times. In TOP, each…

On-road air pollution exhibits substantial variability over short distances due to emission sources, dilution, and physicochemical processes. Integrating mobile monitoring data with street view images (SVIs) holds promise for predicting…

We present an end-to-end framework for solving the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) using reinforcement learning. In this approach, we train a single model that finds near-optimal solutions for problem instances sampled from a given…

Surveillance applications require a collection of heterogeneous vehicles to visit a set of targets. In this article, we consider a fundamental routing problem that arises in these applications involving two vehicles. Specifically, we…

We deal with the problem of planning collision-free trajectories for robots operating in a shared space. Given the start and destination position for each of the robots, the task is to find trajectories for all robots that reach their…

Two-stage methods addressing continuous shortest path problems start local minimization from discrete shortest paths in a spatial graph. The convergence of such hybrid methods to global minimizers hinges on the discretization error induced…

Path planning is one of the most vital elements of mobile robotics. With a priori knowledge of the environment, global path planning provides a collision-free route through the workspace. The global path plan can be calculated with a…

We consider the multi-vehicle one-to-one pickup and delivery problem with split loads, a NP-hard problem linked with a variety of applications for bulk product transportation, bike-sharing systems and inventory re-balancing. This problem is…

We consider an orienteering problem (OP) where an agent needs to visit a series (possibly a subset) of depots, from which the maximal accumulated profits are desired within given limited time budget. Different from most existing works where…

We study the effect of using high-resolution elevation data on the selection of the most fuel-efficient(greenest) path for different trucks in various urban environments.We adapt a variant of the Comprehensive Modal Emission Model(CMEM) to…

This paper addresses the problem of trajectory optimization for an unmanned surface vehicle while considering direction-dependent ocean currents and flexible refueling constraints. This work is motivated by the rising interest in developing…

This paper addresses an optimal control problem for a robot that has to find and collect a finite number of objects and move them to a depot in minimum time. The robot has fourth-order dynamics that change instantaneously at any pick-up or…

This paper deals with the Stochastic Capacitated Arc Routing Problem (SCARP), obtained by randomizing quantities on the arcs in the CARP. Optimization problems for the SCARP are characterized by decisions that are made without knowing their…

The reliability redundancy allocation problem (RRAP) is a well-known tool in system design, development, and management. The RRAP is always modeled as a nonlinear mixed-integer non-deterministic polynomial-time hardness (NP-hard) problem.…

Despite Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) dominating policy gradient methods -- from robotic control to game AI -- its static trust region forces a brittle trade-off: aggressive clipping stifles early exploration, while late-stage updates…

Reinforcement learning with verifiable rewards (RLVR) has become a standard paradigm for post-training large language models. While Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) is widely adopted, its coarse credit assignment uniformly…

We consider the Maximum-Profit Routing Problem (MPRP), a variant of pick-up routing problem introduced in \cite{Armaselu-arXiv-2016, Armaselu-PETRA}, in which the goal is to maximize total profit. The original MPRP restricts vehicles to…

This paper extends the Arc Orienteering Problem (AOP) to large road networks with time-dependent travel times and time-dependent value gain, termed Twofold Time-Dependent AOP or 2TD-AOP for short. In its original definition, the NP-hard…
