This project proposes a bioinspired multi-robot system using Distributed Optimization for efficient exploration and mapping of unknown environments. Each robot explores its environment and creates a map, which is afterwards put together to…

In this work, we propose a learning based neural model that provides both the longitudinal and lateral control commands to simultaneously navigate multiple vehicles. The goal is to ensure that each vehicle reaches a desired target state…

The development of embodied agents that can communicate with humans in natural language has gained increasing interest over the last years, as it facilitates the diffusion of robotic platforms in human-populated environments. As a step…

Many real-world multi-agent systems exhibit nonlinear dynamics and complex inter-agent interactions. As these systems increase in scale, the main challenges arise from achieving scalability and handling nonconvexity. To address these…

Mobile robots are being used on a large scale in various crowded situations and become part of our society. The socially acceptable navigation behavior of a mobile robot with individual human consideration is an essential requirement for…

The limited energy capacity of individual robotic agents in a swarm often limits the possible cooperative tasks they can perform. In this work, we investigate the problem of covering an unknown connected grid environment (e.g. a maze or…

Finding the distant source of an odor dispersed by a turbulent flow is a vital task for many organisms, either for foraging or for mating purposes. At the level of individual search, animals like moths have developed effective strategies to…

This paper addresses the challenge of navigating unmanned aerial vehicles in contested environments by introducing a cooperative multi-agent framework that increases the likelihood of safe UAV traversal. The approach involves two types of…

Modern artificial intelligence relies on networks of agents that collect data, process information, and exchange it with neighbors to collaboratively solve optimization and learning problems. This article introduces a novel distributed…

For many tasks, multi-robot teams often provide greater efficiency, robustness, and resiliency. However, multi-robot collaboration in real-world scenarios poses a number of major challenges, especially when dynamic robots must balance…
