Reliable state estimation in dynamical systems is often challenged by model mismatches, unknown noise statistics, and temporal variations. While AI-aided Kalman filters such as KalmanNet leverage deep learning to enhance classical estimation, they remain vulnerable to distribution shifts and lack mechanisms for autonomous adaptation. This work introduces Change-Aware Self-Adaptive KalmanNet (CASA-KalmanNet), an online adaptation framework that integrates a dedicated neural module, termed CPDNet, to monitor the interpretable internal features of KalmanNet and provide soft indicators of reliability degradation. These indicators dynamically regulate an online learning process, enabling data-efficient and timely adaptation to both abrupt and gradual changes in the system without requiring additional state labels from the changed regime. Numerical experiments on linear and nonlinear state-space models show that CASA-KalmanNet consistently outperforms existing learning-based filters under model mismatch, while approaching the accuracy of optimal classical methods with full domain knowledge.
We propose a filtering-oriented end-to-end learning framework to identify reduced-order models explicitly tailored for state estimation in high-dimensional nonlinear systems. An autoencoder (AE) neural network learns a low-dimensional latent representation of the state together w…
The proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and wearable health monitors has created an urgent demand for ultra-low-power analog-to-digital converters (ADCs). Successive approximation register (SAR) ADCs are widely used in such applications, yet their energy efficiency…
Long-reach drilling booms must reach successive poses without self-collision. Moving from operator-supervised control toward autonomy requires collision-aware motion planning and execution. For the Sandvik SB60, this study adapts established methods by integrating pose-parameteri…
Developing autonomous hydraulic excavators is constrained by limited access to physical machines and the high cost of real-world experimentation. This paper proposes a simulation-to-real framework for learning a system-level digital surrogate using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) n…
Safety critical autonomous systems often adapt by adjusting controller parameters while keeping the underlying architecture fixed. This strategy breaks down when shifts in sensing, resource availability, or component health invalidate the original structural assumptions. This wor…
Underwater dead reckoning estimates vehicle position when vision is unavailable and external positioning cannot be assumed. A single set of filter parameters can work well in many situations, but fixed tuning may be poorly matched during turns, motion transitions, or periods when…
