Ants provide an attractive metaphor for robots that "cooperate" in performing complex tasks. What, however, are the algorithmic consequences of following this metaphor? ...
In this paper, we study the cooperative transport of a heavy object by a group of robots towards a goal. We investigate the case in which robots have partial and noisy knowledge of...
— It is a challenging task for multiple robots working together to realize object transportation. This paper studies a practical situation that a group of mobile manipulators are...
This paper proposes a new methodology for coordinating multi-robot teams in the execution of cooperative tasks. It is based on a dynamic role assignment mechanism in which the rob...
