Stochastic Filtering for Quorum Sensing in Robot Swarms under Anonymous Communication
Fabio Oddi, Andreagiovanni Reina, Vito Trianni
The paper proposes a stochastic filtering protocol based on k‑priority sampling to improve quorum‑sensing estimates in robot swarms that use anonymous communication, and compares i…
Bimodal Synchronization Performance: Why Noise and Sparse Connectivity Can Improve Collective Timing
Till Aust, Tianfu Zhang, Andreagiovanni Reina +1
The paper studies a discrete-time firefly-inspired pulse‑coupled oscillator model and shows that collective synchrony appears only near a critical balance of quorum threshold and p…
Bio-inspired decision making in robot swarms under biases
Raina Zakir, Timoteo Carletti, Marco Dorigo +1
Minimalistic robot swarms offer a scalable, robust, and cost-effective approach to performing complex tasks with the potential to transform applications in healthcare, disaster res…
Speed-Weighted Flocking for Sailing Swarms under Dynamic Environmental Forcing
Pranav Kedia, Aaron Gan, Hannah J. Williams +2
Collective behavior models, such as aggregation and flocking, usually assume self-propelled robots that can directly execute their desired speed and direction of motion without fun…
Multi-robot obstacle-aware shepherding of non-cohesive target agents
Cinzia Tomaselli, Stefano Covone, Andreagiovanni Reina +1
This paper presents a novel control strategy for multi-agent shepherding of non-cohesive targets in obstacle-rich environments. Unlike previous approaches that assume cohesive floc…
Optimal Scalability-Aware Allocation of Swarm Robots: From Linear to Retrograde Performance via Marginal Gains
Simay Atasoy Bingöl, Tobias Töpfer, Sven Kosub +2
In collective systems, the available agents are a limited resource that must be allocated among tasks to maximize collective performance. Computing the optimal allocation of severa…
