(
)
(Same subject as 6.834[J])
Prereq: 6.041B, 6.042, or 16.09; 16.413 or 6.034
Units: 3-0-9
Lecture: MW10.30-12 (33-419)
Algorithms and paradigms for creating human-robot systems that act intelligently and robustly, by reasoning from models of themselves, their counterparts and their world. Examples include Mars and undersea explorers, cooperative vehicles, manufacturing robot teams and everyday embedded devices. Topics include goal-directed commanding of robots using decision-theoretic, state-space, model-based and risk-bounded programs; risk-bounded decision-making under uncertainty; optimal satisfiability and conflict-directed search; mode-estimation and diagnosis; temporal activity planning using heuristic forward search, causal-graph decomposition and goal-regression; robust plan execution through dynamic scheduling, execution monitoring and re-planning; decision-making in hybrid discrete and continuous domains and human-robot collaboration. Student teams explore recent advances in cognitive robots through delivery of advanced lectures and final projects.
