About
Vatsalya Chaubey is a rising researcher in robotics and control theory, with a primary focus on pursuit-evasion dynamics and safety-critical autonomous systems. Their most cited work, "Control Strategies for Pursuit-Evasion Under Occlusion Using Visibility and Safety Barrier Functions" (2025), introduces a novel framework that addresses a fundamental challenge in multi-agent systems: maintaining visual tracking of a mobile evader despite environmental occlusions. By leveraging signed distance functions (SDFs) of the field of view, Chaubey develops control strategies that simultaneously ensure visibility constraints and safety guarantees through barrier functions. This work bridges the gap between geometric visibility analysis and formal control synthesis, offering practical solutions for applications ranging from surveillance to autonomous navigation in cluttered environments. While still early in their career, Chaubey's contributions represent a significant step toward enabling robots to operate reliably in partially observable, obstacle-rich settings. Their research sits at the intersection of control theory, computer vision, and robotics, promising to advance the capabilities of autonomous systems in real-world scenarios where maintaining line-of-sight is critical for mission success.
