Multi-Objective Compliance-Integrated Coevolution For Simulated And Real-World Deployment Of Multi-Robot Marine Autonomy
Everardo Gonzalez, Tyler M. Paine, Manuel Agraz Vallejo +3
The paper presents a multi‑objective framework that combines coevolved coordination behaviors with predefined compliance rules to enable teams of marine robots to perform tasks whi…
Rapidly Converging Time-Discounted Ergodicity on Graphs for Active Inspection of Confined Spaces
Benjamin Wong, Ryan H. Lee, Tyler M. Paine +2
Ergodic exploration has spawned a lot of interest in mobile robotics due to its ability to design time trajectories that match desired spatial coverage statistics. However, current…
Adaptive bias for dissensus in nonlinear opinion dynamics with application to evolutionary division of labor games
Tyler M. Paine, Anastasia Bizyaeva, Michael R. Benjamin
This paper addresses the problem of adaptively controlling the bias parameter in nonlinear opinion dynamics (NOD) to allocate agents into groups of arbitrary sizes for the purpose…
A Model for Multi-Agent Autonomy That Uses Opinion Dynamics and Multi-Objective Behavior Optimization
Tyler M. Paine, Michael R. Benjamin
This paper reports a new hierarchical architecture for modeling autonomous multi-robot systems (MRSs): a nonlinear dynamical opinion process is used to model high-level group choic…
Safe Autonomy for Uncrewed Surface Vehicles Using Adaptive Control and Reachability Analysis
Karan Mahesh, Tyler M. Paine, Max L. Greene +6
Marine robots must maintain precise control and ensure safety during tasks like ocean monitoring, even when encountering unpredictable disturbances that affect performance. Designi…
