Cooperative Circumnavigation for Multiple Unmanned Surface Vehicles Without External Localization
Xueming Liu, Lin Li, Xiang Zhou +2
This paper proposes a cooperative target circumnavigation framework for multiple unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) operating without external localization. The objective is to maint…
A Recursive Total Least Squares Solution for Bearing-Only Target Motion Analysis and Circumnavigation
Lin Li, Xueming Liu, Zhoujingzi Qiu +2
Bearing-only Target Motion Analysis (TMA) is a promising technique for passive tracking in various applications as a bearing angle is easy to measure. Despite its advantages, beari…
Cooperative Circumnavigation for Multi-Quadrotor Systems via Onboard Sensing
Xueming Liu, Lin Li, Xiang Zhou +2
A cooperative circumnavigation framework is proposed for multi-quadrotor systems to enclose and track a moving target without reliance on external localization systems. The distinc…
Formation Control for Enclosing and Tracking via Relative Localization
Xueming Liu, Dengyu Zhang, Qingrui Zhang +1
This paper proposes an integrated framework for coordinating multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in a distributed manner to persistently enclose and track a moving target with…
DACOOP-A: Decentralized Adaptive Cooperative Pursuit via Attention
Zheng Zhang, Dengyu Zhang, Qingrui Zhang +2
Integrating rule-based policies into reinforcement learning promises to improve data efficiency and generalization in cooperative pursuit problems. However, most implementations do…
Formation Control for Moving Target Enclosing via Relative Localization
Xueming Liu, Kunda Liu, Tianjiang Hu +1
In this paper, we investigate the problem of controlling multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to enclose a moving target in a distributed fashion based on a relative distance a…
EASpace: Enhanced Action Space for Policy Transfer
Zheng Zhang, Qingrui Zhang, Bo Zhu +2
Formulating expert policies as macro actions promises to alleviate the long-horizon issue via structured exploration and efficient credit assignment. However, traditional option-ba…
Multi-robot Cooperative Pursuit via Potential Field-Enhanced Reinforcement Learning
Zheng Zhang, Xiaohan Wang, Qingrui Zhang +1
It is of great challenge, though promising, to coordinate collective robots for hunting an evader in a decentralized manner purely in light of local observations. In this paper, th…
