Multi‐objective exploration and search for autonomous rescue robots [PDF]
Journal of Field Robotics, 2007 Abstract“Exploration and search” is a typical task for autonomous robots performing in rescue missions, specifically addressing the problem of exploring the environment and at the same time searching for interesting features within the environment. In this paper, we model this problem as a multi‐objective exploration and search problem and present a ...

Development of a continuum robot enhanced with distributed sensors for search and rescue
ROBOMECH Journal, 2022 Continuum robots can enter narrow spaces and are useful for search and rescue missions in disaster sites. The exploration efficiency at disaster sites improves if the robots can simultaneously acquire several pieces of information.

Teams organization and performance analysis in autonomous human-robot teams [PDF]
, 2010 This paper proposes a theory of human control of robot teams based on considering how people coordinate across different task allocations. Our current work focuses on domains such as foraging in which robots perform largely independent tasks. The present
