More than one homogenous or heterogenous type unmanned vehicle can work in a coordinated manner and perform large-scale swarm tasks (firefighting, search and rescue, mapping, and military operations, etc.) efficiently in a shorter time by sharing tasks. Collision of these vehicles is among the most significant problems encountered during their work. The crash of the vehicles causes the vehicles to be out of duty and, accordingly, to the mission’s failure. In this study, Quadrotor-type UAVs used as agents can go to any target point by receiving location, speed, and compass information with GPS and IMU sensors. In the application, the agents’ locations were kept and updated in a list in pairs, similar to the traversing process in the Optimized Bubble Sort Algorithm. The projections of the velocity vectors on the agents’ axis (local) on a single coordinate plane are taken to determine the collision situation between these two agents that are traveling instantaneously. These global velocity vectors, whose projections are taken, are re-projected to the edge formed by these two agents in the graph and then subtracted from each other. Suppose the size of the vector is greater than the distance between two agents obtained by any GPS distance algorithm (Pythagoras, Haversine, etc.). In this case, collision is detected, and the separation process is activated. Separation is the process of advancing one agent in the opposite direction of the other until a minimum safe distance is achieved, where one agent entered by the user will not affect the other. Once the separation is complete, the agent moves to the final destination point.

In this paper, we consider the learning of a Reduced-Order Linear Parameter-Varying Model (ROLPVM) of a nonlinear dynamical system based on data. This is achieved by a two-step procedure. In the first step, we learn a projection to a lower dimensional state-space. In step two, an LPV model is learned on the reduced-order state-space using a novel, efficient parameterization in terms of neural networks. The improved modeling accuracy of the method compared to an existing method is demonstrated by simulation examples.

Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction serves as a cornerstone in various robotic applications, playing critical roles in scene understanding and navigation. Traditionally, LiDAR has been instrumental in generating precise point clouds of the environment, providing essential data for these applications. However, the efficacy of LiDAR sensors is significantly hindered in challenging conditions, such as the presence of water or icy surfaces. The complex interplay between laser beams and icy or non-ideal surfaces can result in signal degradation, distortion, or even complete signal loss, adversely affecting the accuracy and reliability of the 3D reconstruction process. The reflective and refractive properties of ice, along with its variable surface conditions, present challenges that traditional LiDAR sensors struggle to address. This paper proposes a diverse dataset to facilitate a multimodal approach for reconstructing icy surfaces using various sensors. A preliminary study based on this dataset demonstrates the feasibility of combining the geometric surface obtained from consecutive LiDAR scans with reconstructed meshes from visual cameras. The integration of distinct data sources has the potential to improve the robustness of reconstruction algorithms in diverse scenarios. The dataset can be downloaded at https://***/records/13862009.

The focus of this paper is to address a novel control technique for stability and transparency analysis of bilateral telerobotic systems in the presence of data loss and time delay in the communication channel. Different control strategies have been reported to compensate the effects of time delay in the communication channel;however, most of them result in poor performance under data loss. First, a model for data loss is proposed using a finite series representation of a set of periodic continuous *** improve the performance and data reconstruction, a holder circuits is also introduced. The passivity of the overall system is provided via the wave variable technique based on the proposed model for the data loss. The stability analysis of the system is then derived using the Lyapunov theorem under the time delay and the data loss. Finally, experimental results are given to illustrate the capability of the proposed control technique.

Transformer-based foundation models have become crucial for various domains, most notably natural language processing (NLP) or computer vision (CV). These models are predominantly deployed on high-performance GPUs or hardwired accelerators with highly customized, proprietary instruction sets. Until now, limited attention has been given to RISC-V-based general-purpose platforms. In our work, we present the first inference results of transformer models on an open-source many-tiny-core RISC-V platform implementing distributed Softmax primitives and leveraging ISA extensions for SIMD floating-point operand streaming and instruction repetition, as well as specialized DMA engines to minimize costly main memory accesses and to tolerate their latency. We focus on two foundational transformer topologies, encoder-only and decoder-only models. For encoder-only models, we demonstrate a speedup of up to 12.8 $\times$ between the most optimized implementation and the baseline version. We reach over 79% FPU utilization and 294 GFLOPS/W, outperforming State-of-the-Art (SoA) accelerators by more than 2 $\times$ utilizing the HW platform while achieving comparable throughput per computational unit. For decoder-only topologies, we achieve 16.1 $\times$ speedup in the Non-Autoregressive (NAR) mode and up to 35.6 $\times$ speedup in the Autoregressive (AR) mode compared to the baseline implementation. Compared to the best SoA dedicated accelerator, we achieve 2.04 $\times$ higher FPU utilization.
