Cassandras","Sean B. Andersson"],"abstract":"We consider the problem of using an autonomous agent to persistently monitor a collection of dynamic targets distributed in an environment. We generalize existing work by allowing the agent's dynamics to vary throughout the environment, leading to a hybrid dynamical system. This introduces an additional layer of complexity towards the planning portion of the problem: we must not only identify in which order to visit the points of interest, but also in which order to traverse the regions. We design an offline high-level sequence planner together with an online trajectory optimizer realizing the computed visiting sequence. We provide numerical experiments to illustrate the performance of our approach.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.19769v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2403.19769v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"online-trajectory-optimization-for-persistent","repo_url":"https://github.com/hallfjonas/hytoperm","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
