Path Finding for the Coalition of Co-operative Agents Acting in the Environment with Destructible Obstacles
P. 13–22.
Andreychuk A., Yakovlev K.
The problem of planning a set of paths for the coalition of robots (agents) with different capabilities is considered in the paper. Some agents can modify the environment by destructing the obstacles thus allowing the other ones to shorten their paths to the goal. As a result the mutual solution of lower cost, e.g. time to completion, may be acquired. We suggest an original procedure to identify the obstacles for further removal that can be embedded into almost any heuristic search planner (we use Theta*) and evaluate it empirically. Results of the evaluation show that time-to-complete the mission can be decreased up to 9–12 % by utilizing the proposed technique.

This study introduces an innovative control approach for deploying multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to monitor an unknown food region. The proposed strategy is designed to optimally distribute UAVs across the food-afected area while cooperatively estimating the extent of inundation. To achieve this, an adaptive coverage controller is developed based on Centroidal Voronoi Tessellation (CVT), incorporating a novel ...

Modern map-dependent algorithms for mobile robot navigation typically overload a CPU and memory with a gradually increasing amount of environmental data. In contrast, Bug family local path planning algorithms operate without mapping and have significantly lower hardware requirements. Bug algorithms use real-time measurements from visual and touch sensors to make immediate decisions on direction of ...

In modern times, stochastic large-scale multi-agent systems (MAS) aimed at supporting socio-economic planning are being developed. There is a well known problem of a high computational complexity task of an optimal control for multiple agents’ behaviour in models of random interactions. In particular, agents (such as sellers and buyers) should make individualised decisions on establishing ...

The structure of a process model discovered from an event log of a multi-agent system often does not reflect the system architecture with respect to agent interactions. The existing conformance checking quality dimensions mainly evaluate the extent to which the behavior a discovered model corresponds to event sequences recorded in an event log. These behavioral ...

Urban green infrastructures (UGI) contribute to a quality of life in cities by provisioning cultural and regulating ecosystem services (ES). Planning and management of UGI needs transparent and spatially explicit indicators of the ES supply. In this study, we have used open-source geospatial data to quantify regulating (air pollution/noise and stormwater runoff regulation, climate mitigation), ...

The structure of a process model directly discovered from an event log of a multi-agent system often does not reflect the behavior of individual agents and their interactions. We suggest analyzing the relations between events in an event log to localize actions executed by different agents and involved in their asynchronous interaction. Then, a process ...

A process model discovered from an event log of a multi-agent system often does not fully cover certain viewpoints of its architecture. We consider those concerned with the structure of a model explicitly reflecting agent behavior and interactions. The direct discovery from an event log of a multi-agent system may result in an unclear model ...
