Emergence Analysis in a Multi-Robot System

2018 XLIV Latin American Computer Conference (CLEI), 2018
In this paper, we study the emergent behaviors in a multi-robot system. The multi-robot system uses a model for decision making that is composed of three levels: one individual, one collective, and another for the knowledge and learning management. In particular, the individual level, the base of the emergent behavior of the system, is composed of a ...

Learning Concepts with Multi-robot Systems

2011
This paper introduces a novel approach to learn representations of objects using a team of robots. Each robot extracts local and global visual features of objects and combines them to represent and recognize objects. Contrary to previous approaches the robots do not know in advance the number or nature of objects to learn. Individual representations of

A sizing method for a multi-robot system

Proceedings 2001 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems. Expanding the Societal Role of Robotics in the the Next Millennium (Cat. No.01CH37180), 2002
Addresses a fast method for optimizing and sizing a multi-robot system. To demonstrate the performance of such an approach, a complex heterogeneous system is considered. It is composed of two populations of robots having different but complementary abilities. It is shown that it is possible to find the optimum criteria to execute the mission and obtain

Multi-Robot Systems

2012
While the concepts of robotics and planning may be easily understood by the taking a single robot, it is not necessary that the problems we solve have a single robot in the planning scenario. In this chapter, the authors present systems with multiple robots, each robot attempts to coordinate and cooperate with the other robots for problem solving.

Cooperative processing with multi-robot systems

2017 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Intelligent Mechatronics (AIM), 2017
Multi-robot systems are increasingly utilized for cooperative industrial robot applications. In the scope of this work, a novel approach for the division of robot applications between multiple robots by handling the tool and the workpiece at the same time is presented.

Distributed coverage with multi-robot system

Proceedings 2006 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2006. ICRA 2006., 2006
In this paper, we proposed an improved algorithm for the multi-robot complete coverage problem. Real world applications such as lawn mowing, chemical spill clean-up, and humanitarian de-mining can be automated by the employment of a team of autonomous mobile robots.

Precise Formation of Multi-Robot Systems

2007 IEEE International Conference on System of Systems Engineering, 2007
There are several applications which require high-precision placement of sensors or objects. Unstructured, remote environments make this problem even more complex, where high precision is not attainable using conventional sensors. Some applications have units so sparsely spaced that few options remain.

Dynamic Agencies and Multi-Robot Systems

1998
The study of the development of cooperative multi-agent systems is an issue of fundamental importance in the field of distributed artificial intelligence. We present a new type of multi-agent system, called dynamic agency, that is aimed to overcome the critical problem of having each agent performing both several specific operation functions and one ...

Communication Systems for Multi Robot Systems

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 2000
Abstract This paper dealt with a communication system between the field mobile robot and the control station. The control station had two functions; one was the function as a control system that could gather vehicle and travel status from a robot working at field, and send a control commands to the robots, another was the function as a decision ...

Decentralized Control of Cooperative Multi-robot Systems

Integrated Computer-Aided Engineering, 1999
Several autonomous robots performing a common task not achievable by a single robot must coordinate their actions in order to succeed. A centralized control strategy may ensure this coordination, but it is often impractical due to strong restrictions on required feedback structure, inter-robot communications and tolerable time-delays.
