Fault-tolerant formations of mobile robots
—The goal of a robot formation control architecture is to get a number of robots into a specified form. To be effective and practical, the control architecture must be able to tr...

Robot path planning in uncertain environments based on particle swarm optimization
— We propose a robot path planning method based on particle swarm optimization in an uncertain environment. We consider the case that a robot’s cognition to its environment is ...

Algorithms for Control and Interaction of Large Formations of Robots
NSF and NASA sponsored a workshop to discuss harvesting solar power in space. One solution considered was the use of a swarm of robots to form a solar reflector. How can these rob...

Path Planning for Permutation-Invariant Multi-Robot Formations
— In this paper we demonstrate path planning for our formation space that represents permutation-invariant multirobot formations. Earlier methods generally pre-assign roles for e...
