Vectorized Online POMDP Planning 文章

arXiv:2510.27191v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Planning under partial observability is an essential capability of autonomous robots. The Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP) provides a powerful framework for planning under partial observability problems, capturing the stochastic effects of actions and the limited information available through noisy observations. POMDP solving could benefit tremendously from massive parallelization on today's hardware, but parallelizing POMDP solvers has been challenging. Most solvers rely on interleaving numerical optimization over actions with the estimation of their values, which creates dependencies and synchronization bottlenecks between parallel processes that can offset the benefits of parallelization.
