      Collision avoidance systems are a key ingredient in developing autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs). Such systems require real-time information about the environment, which can be obtained from transponder-based systems or ...
    • RAMARL: Robustness Analysis with Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning - Robust Reasoning in Autonomous Cyber-Physical Systems 

      Saad, Aya; Håkansson, Anne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      A key driver to offering smart services is an infrastructure of Cyber-Physical systems (CPS)s. By definition, CPSs are intertwined physical and computational components that integrate physical behaviour with computation. ...
    • Range Anxiety Alleviation for Electric Vehicles using a Dual Extended Kalman Filter with a Nonlinear Battery Model 

      Kvaale, Bjørn (Master thesis, 2017)
      The purpose of this thesis was to find a solution to combat range anxiety in electric vehicles (EV). Range anxiety was defined as the fear that the driver will not reach their destination and is a major barrier to increase ...
