Role Assignment in Multi-Agent Coordination
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we study the problem of parameterized assignment. This problem arises when a team of mobile robots must decide what role to take on in a given planar formation, where the parameters are the rotation and translation of the formation. A suite of suboptimal, but computationally tractable (polynomial time) algorithms are given, based on a solution to the problem of finding the optimal translation and rotation given a fixed assignment. Numerical examples show the viability of the proposed, suboptimal solutions.

Voltage Coordination of FACTS Devices in Power Systems Using RL-Based Multi-Agent Systems
This paper describes how multi-agent system technology can be used as the underpinning platform for voltage control in power systems. In this study, some FACTS (flexible AC transmission systems) devices are properly designed to coordinate their decisions and actions in order to provide a coordinated secondary voltage control mechanism based on multi-agent theory. Each device here is modeled as ...
متن کاملAutomated Adaptation of Strategic Guidance in Multiagent Coordination
We address multi-agent planning problems in dynamic environments motivated by assisting human teams in disaster emergency response. It is challenging because most goals are revealed during execution, where uncertainty in the duration and outcome of actions plays a significant role, and where unexpected events can cause large disruptions to existing plans. The key to our approach is giving human...
متن کاملSCRAM: scalable collision-avoiding role assignment with minimal-makespan for formational positioning
Teams of mobile robots often need to divide up subtasks efficiently. In spatial domains, a key criterion for doing so may depend on distances between robots and the subtasks’ locations. This paper considers a specific such criterion, namely how to assign interchangeable robots, represented as point masses, to a set of target goal locations within an open two dimensional space such that the make...
متن کاملA multi-agent based optimization method applied to the quadratic assignment problem
Inspired by the idea of interacting intelligent agents of a multi-agent system, we introduce a multi-agent based optimization method applied to the quadratic assignment problem (MAOM-QAP). MAOM-QAP is composed of several agents (decision-maker agent, local search agents, crossover agents and perturbation agent) which are designed for the purpose of intensified and diversified search activities....
متن کاملFast Distributed Multi-agent Plan Execution with Dynamic Task Assignment and Scheduling
An essential quality of a good partner is her responsiveness to other team members. Recent work in dynamic plan execution exhibits elements of this quality through the ability to adapt to the temporal uncertainties of others agents and the environment. However, a good teammate also has the ability to adapt on-the-fly through task assignment. We generalize the framework of dynamic execution to p...
