Adaptive Macroscopic Ensemble Allocation for Robot Teams Monitoring Spatiotemporal Processes
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.We propose an online, environment feedback‐driven macroscopic ensemble approach to adapt robot team task allocation in spatiotemporal environments by controlling robot populations rather than assigning individual robots, all while maintaining robust team performance even for small teams. Our simulation and experimental results show better or comparable
