Overview
- Highlights innovative perspectives on real-time decision making for autonomous vehicles in critical situations
- Details operational diagrams and schematics of the framework’s various components using tables, figures, and flowcharts
- Discusses how a high-level decision maker and a local low-level action generator can simultaneously plan and carry out a mission while allowing for dynamic maneuvering in a cluttered and uncertain environment
