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.
