Abstract: Behavior planning of automated vehicles entails many uncertainties. Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDP) are a mathematical framework suited for formulating the arising sequential decision problems. Solving POMDPs used to be intractable except for overly simplified examples, especially when execution time is of importance. Recent sampling-based solvers alleviated this problem by searching not for the exact but rather an approximated solution, and made POMDPs usable for many real-world applications. One of these algorithms is the Adaptive Belief Tree (ABT) algorithm which will be analyzed in this work. The scenario under consideration is an uncertain obstacle in the way of an automated vehicle. Following this example, the setup of POMDP and ABT is derived and the impact of important parameters is assessed in simulation. As such, this work provides a hands-on tutorial, giving insights and hints on how to overcome the pitfalls in using sampling-based POMDP solvers.
