Can LLM Agents Solve Collaborative Tasks? A Study on Urgency-Aware Planning and Coordination
João Vitor de Carvalho Silva, Douglas G. Macharet
The ability to coordinate actions across multiple agents is critical for solving complex, real-world problems. Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown strong capabilities in commun…
Socially-aware Object Transportation by a Mobile Manipulator in Static Planar Environments with Obstacles
Caio C. G. Ribeiro, Leonardo R. D. Paes, Douglas G. Macharet
Socially-aware robotic navigation is essential in environments where humans and robots coexist, ensuring both safety and comfort. However, most existing approaches have been primar…
Beyond the Plane: A 3D Representation of Human Personal Space for Socially-Aware Robotics
Caio C. G. Ribeiro, Douglas G. Macharet
The increasing presence of robots in human environments requires them to exhibit socially appropriate behavior, adhering to social norms. A critical aspect in this context is the c…
Communication Backbone Reconfiguration with Connectivity Maintenance
Leonardo Santos, Caio C. G. Ribeiro, Douglas G. Macharet
The exchange of information is key in applications that involve multiple agents, such as search and rescue, military operations, and disaster response. In this work, we propose a s…
A Semi-Lagrangian Approach for the Minimal Exposure Path Problem in Wireless Sensor Networks
Armando Alves Neto, Víctor C. da Silva Campos, Douglas G. Macharet
A critical metric of the coverage quality in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) is the Minimal Exposure Path (MEP), a path through the environment that least exposes an intruder to th…
Minimal Exposure Dubins Orienteering Problem
Douglas G. Macharet, Armando Alves Neto, Daigo Shishika
Different applications, such as environmental monitoring and military operations, demand the observation of predefined target locations, and an autonomous mobile robot can assist i…
