    • Fast Multi-query Planning in Graphs of Convex Sets 

      Morozov, Savva (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-02)
      Planning in Graphs of Convex Sets (GCS) is a recently developed optimization framework that seamlessly integrates discrete and continuous decision making. It naturally models and effectively solves a wide range of challenging ...

    • Structuring Representation Geometry in Self-Supervised Learning 

      Gupta, Sharut (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-02)
      The central promise of deep learning is to learn a map 𝑓 : 𝒳 → ℝ_𝑑 that transforms objects 𝒳—represented in their raw perceptual forms, such as images or molecular strings—into a representation space ℝ_𝑑 where everything ...

    • Scalable and Modular Manufacturing of Insect-Scale Aerial Robots Towards Swarm Flight Demonstrations 

      Hsiao, Yi-Hsuan (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2025-02)
      Insects demonstrate remarkable capabilities in navigating complex environments and executing tasks such as pollination and coordinated object transport. Inspired by these biological feats, insect-scale micro aerial vehicles ...
