This $500,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Computer and Information Science and Engineering program will support research at The Ohio State University to develop situational awareness strategies for autonomous cyber-physical systems operating in dynamic, uncertain environments. The objectives of the six-month project beginning October 1, 2022 are to analyze environmental observability for multiple autonomous agents, develop on-the-fly adaptation strategies to refine agents' environmental models as spatial-temporal maps are built, design computationally efficient information fusion algorithms with performance guarantees considering realistic nonlinear dynamics and non-Gaussian noise, and synthesize optimal real-time decision-making strategies balancing information gathering and mission fulfillment objectives. This research aims to enable autonomous systems to make sense of complex environments where direct human control is impractical. Findings have the potential to advance autonomous capabilities in applications such as unmanned aerial vehicles and self-driving vehicles.
