Behavior Planning Primer: How FSMs, Behavior Trees, and POMDPs Choose What an Automated Vehicle Does Next
Behavior planning turns uncertain perception into stop, follow, yield, merge, and lane-change decisions, then constrains path planning and MPC. This primer connects FSMs, behavior trees, POMDPs, current ADAS, safety, and testing.

Control Engineering Primer: Model Predictive Control — Acting Within Constraints
Model Predictive Control predicts future behavior with a model, optimizes a constrained input sequence, applies only its first move, and repeats. This primer covers equations, tuning, safety, implementation, and current examples.
