Optimality-Informed Neural Networks for Lunar Landing Trajectory Optimization

arXiv:2607. 02741v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper develops an Optimality-Informed Neural Network (OINN) approach for the energy-optimal, free-final-time powered descent of a lunar lander from any initial position, velocity, and mass within a bounded operating envelope to a fixed landing site with zero terminal velocity.

Neural operator learning for collision-aware trajectory planning of spacecraft swarms

arXiv:2608. 00320v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous spacecraft swarms must plan fuel-efficient, collision-free maneuvers in increasingly congested orbits, yet classical trajectory optimization scales poorly as pairwise safety constraints multiply with swarm size, and learning-based planners rarely transfer across swarm sizes or debris densities.

Transformer-Based Warm-Starting for Feasible and Optimal Terminal Approach to Tumbling Objects with Space Manipulators

arXiv:2606. 17317v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Real-time trajectory generation for on-orbit robotic servicing is challenging due to the nonlinear coupling between spacecraft bus motion, manipulator dynamics, visibility cone, and trajectory-level safety constraints.
