Wheel-loader V-Cycle Automation with Deep Koopman MPC

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 22, 2026 · UTC

The repeated forward-reverse maneuvers performed by wheel loaders during earthmoving operations make them well suited for automation. However, the nonlinear dynamics of articulated vehicles and complex vehicle-terrain interactions limit the effectiveness of conventional model-based approaches. This paper presents a hierarchical framework that combines long-horizon geometric planning with data-driven predictive control for autonomous wheel-loader operation. A reduced-order articulated kinematic model is used to generate the maneuver geometry, where the forward and reverse trajectories are joint
