LOMORO: Long-term Monitoring of Dynamic Targets with Minimum Robotic Fleet under Resource Constraints
Mingke Lu, Shuaikang Wang, Meng Guo
Long-term monitoring of numerous dynamic targets can be tedious for a human operator and infeasible for a single robot, e.g., to monitor wild flocks, detect intruders, search and r…
Customize Harmonic Potential Fields via Hybrid Optimization over Homotopic Paths
Shuaikang Wang, Tiecheng Guo, Meng Guo
Safe navigation within a workspace is a fundamental skill for autonomous robots to accomplish more complex tasks. Harmonic potentials are artificial potential fields that are analy…
Uncertainty-bounded Active Monitoring of Unknown Dynamic Targets in Road-networks with Minimum Fleet
Shuaikang Wang, Yiannis Kantaros, Meng Guo
Fleets of unmanned robots can be beneficial for the long-term monitoring of large areas, e.g., to monitor wild flocks, detect intruders, search and rescue. Monitoring numerous dyna…
Multi-UAV Deployment in Obstacle-Cluttered Environments with LOS Connectivity
Yuda Chen, Meng Guo
A reliable communication network is essential for multiple UAVs operating within obstacle-cluttered environments, where limited communication due to obstructions often occurs. A co…
