Lightweight Decentralized Neural Network-Based Strategies for Multi-Robot Patrolling
James C. Ward, Ryan McConville, Edmund R. Hunt
The problem of decentralized multi-robot patrol has previously been approached primarily with hand-designed strategies for minimization of 'idlenes' over the vertices of a graph-st…
