A Comparison of New Swarm Task Allocation Algorithms in Unknown Environments with Varying Task Density
Grace Cai, Noble Harasha, Nancy Lynch
Task allocation is an important problem for robot swarms to solve, allowing agents to reduce task completion time by performing tasks in a distributed fashion. Existing task alloca…
A Superconducting Nanowire-based Architecture for Neuromorphic Computing
Andres E. Lombo, Jesus E. Lares, Matteo Castellani +3
Neuromorphic computing is poised to further the success of software-based neural networks by utilizing improved customized hardware. However, the translation of neuromorphic algori…
A Spatially Dependent Probabilistic Model for House Hunting in Ant Colonies
Grace Cai, Wendy Wu, Wayne Zhao +2
Ant species such as Temnothorax albipennis select a new nest site in a distributed fashion that, if modeled correctly, can serve as useful information for site selection algorithms…
A superconducting nanowire spiking element for neural networks
Emily Toomey, Ken Segall, Matteo Castellani +3
As the limits of traditional von Neumann computing come into view, the brain's ability to communicate vast quantities of information using low-power spikes has become an increasing…
Learning Hierarchically Structured Concepts
Nancy Lynch, Frederik Mallmann-Trenn
We study the question of how concepts that have structure get represented in the brain. Specifically, we introduce a model for hierarchically structured concepts and we show how a…
How to Color a French Flag--Biologically Inspired Algorithms for Scale-Invariant Patterning
Alberto Ancona, Ayesha Bajwa, Nancy Lynch +1
In the French flag problem, initially uncolored cells on a grid must differentiate to become blue, white or red. The goal is for the cells to color the grid as a French flag, i.e.,…
