Synopsis

Mamie Lang Kirkland was seven years old when she fled Ellisville, Mississippi in 1915 with her mother and siblings as her father and his friend, John Hartfield, escaped an approaching lynch mob. John Hartfield returned to Mississippi in 1919 and was killed in one of the most horrific lynchings of the era. Mamie’s son, Tarabu, had grown up hearing stories of John Hartfield but didn’t know if his mother’s stories were fact or folklore until one day in 2015. Tarabu discovered an article describing Hartfield’s gruesome murder before a crowd of 10,000 spectators. At that moment, the film was born.

Mamie had vowed for a century that she would never return to Mississippi. Yet with Tarabu’s remarkable find, he urged his mother to finally confront her childhood trauma by returning to Ellisville. Mamie was 107 when they began the journey to connect her story to the larger impact of America’s legacy of racial violence, which echoes today from Ferguson to New York, Atlanta to Los Angeles. Like many of the six million African Americans who left the Deep South, Mamie’s story is a testament to the courage and hope of her generation. Her indomitable will and contagious joy of living is exceeded only by her ability to tell her story now, 111 years later. In a time of great social divisions, 100 Years From Mississippi gives us the simple wisdom of an ordinary woman’s extraordinary life.

State estimation is one of the core components of all autonomous systems. For size, weight,
and power (SWaP) constrained robots, it is often performed with a special assortment of
sensors tailored to the size and power capacities of the agent. If there is enough perceptual
information in the environment, the robot can extract accurate state estimates. However,
when such information is scarce, there is a fundamental barrier. An agent must either act
in a way cognizant of such circumstances, or we must resort to alternate solutions
altogether. In this talk, I will first consider the problem of minimizing the traversal time of
a given geometric path by a vision-driven micro aerial vehicle that has to maintain accurate
state estimates at all times. In the second part, I will shift the focus towards enabling
autonomous agents to navigate perceptually-degraded environments. In particular, I will
look at how members of robot teams can leverage each other to localize accurately. We
shall delve into the underlying optimization problems, showing that suitably positioning
perceptually-advantaged members of the team can reduce the localization uncertainty of
perceptually-disadvantaged agents by up to ninety percent, as well as showing what cannot
be achieved regardless of which optimization algorithm we use.
