Spatiotemporal predictive learning (ST-PL) is a hotspot with numerous applications, such as object movement and meteorological prediction. It aims at predicting the subsequent frames via observed sequences. However, inherent uncertainty…
The size and capabilities of Earth-observing satellite constellations are rapidly increasing. Leveraging distributed onboard control, we can enable novel time-sensitive measurements and responses. However, deploying autonomy to large…
Several challenging optimization problems arise while considering the deployment of the space-air-ground integrated networks (SAGINs), among which the optimal satellite gateway deployment problem is of significant importance. Moreover, with…
The ESA/NASA joint LISA (laser interferometer space antenna) mission is designed to detect gravitational waves, which relies crucially on maintaining three-spacecraft constellation as close to an equilateral triangle with a designed…
Spatial-temporal forecasting plays an important role in many real-world applications, such as traffic forecasting, air pollutant forecasting, crowd-flow forecasting, and so on. State-of-the-art spatial-temporal forecasting models take…
The growing interest in the cislunar domain over the past decade has led to an increasing demand for low-thrust missions to key orbits within this region. These low-thrust missions, typically characterized by long thrust arcs, are highly…
Laser inter-satellite links (LISLs) of low Earth orbit (LEO) mega-constellations enable high-capacity backbone connectivity in non-terrestrial networks, but their management is challenged by limited laser communication terminals, mechanical…
Simultaneous Localization and Planning (SLAP) under process and measurement uncertainties is a challenge. It involves solving a stochastic control problem modeled as a Partially Observed Markov Decision Process (POMDP) in a general…
Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) type of polytopic models have been used prominently in the literature to analyze nonlinear systems. With the sector nonlinearity approach, an exact representation of a nonlinear system within a sector could be obtained…
Navigation in the cislunar domain presents significant challenges due to chaotic and unmodeled dynamics, as well as state-dependent sensor errors. This paper develops a robust estimation framework based on Linear Fractional Transformation…

Deciding which sensing capabilities to deploy on an agent in uncertain domains is a fundamental engineering challenge, in which one balances task achievability against the high costs of hardware and processing. This problem has previously…
Place recognition based on point clouds (LiDAR) is an important component for autonomous robots or self-driving vehicles. Current SOTA performance is achieved on accumulated LiDAR submaps using either point-based or voxel-based structures.…
This paper focuses on spatial time-optimal motion planning, a generalization of the exact time-optimal path following problem that allows the system to plan within a predefined space. In contrast to state-of-the-art methods, we drop the…
Satellite constellation design requires optimizing orbital parameters across multiple satellites to maximize mission specific metrics. For many types of mission, it is desirable to maximize coverage and minimize revisit gaps over ground…
We consider the uncertain multi-robot motion planning (MRMP) problem with cooperative localization (CL-MRMP), under both motion and measurement noise, where each robot can act as a sensor for its nearby teammates. We formalize CL-MRMP as a…
The increase in space activities has increased the risks of space debris generation, affecting space safety and sustainability. Traditional space situational awareness (SSA) relies on single star trackers and ground-based tracking…
