Behaviorally Heterogeneous Multi-Agent Exploration Using Distributed Task Allocation
Nirabhra Mandal, Aamodh Suresh, Carlos Nieto-Granda +1
We study a problem of multi-agent exploration with behaviorally heterogeneous robots. Each robot maps its surroundings using SLAM and identifies a set of areas of interest (AoIs) o…
Multi-Topic Projected Opinion Dynamics for Resource Allocation
Prashil Wankhede, Nirabhra Mandal, Sonia Martínez +1
We propose a model of opinion formation on resource allocation among multiple topics by multiple agents, who are subject to hard budget constraints. We define a utility function fo…
Distributed Task Allocation for Self-Interested Agents with Partially Unknown Rewards
Nirabhra Mandal, Mohammad Khajenejad, Sonia Martínez
This paper provides a novel solution to a task allocation problem, by which a group of agents decides on the assignment of a discrete set of tasks in a distributed manner. In this…
Control of Discrete-Time LTI Systems using Stochastic Ensemble Systems
Nirabhra Mandal, Mohammad Khajenejad, Sonia Martinez
In this paper, we study the control properties of a new class of stochastic ensemble systems that consists of families of random variables. These random variables provide an increa…
