Stanford has put Principles of Robot Autonomy online for free — 19 chapters (520 pages) in four parts, grown out of Marco Pavone's course series since 2017: motion planning and control, perception (camera models, stereo/SfM, deep detection), localisation and mapping (SLAM, sensor fusion), and decision making (DP, RL, imitation learning as chapter 19, after dynamics, observers and SLAM). Full lecture recordings for AA203 (19 lectures) and AA174 (14 lectures) are included.
