Multi-Agent Planning with Planning Graph
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we consider planning for multi-agents situations in STRIPS-like domains with planning graph. Three possible relationships between agents’ goals are considered in order to evaluate plans: the agents may be collaborative, adversarial or indifferent entities. We propose algorithms to deal with each situation. The collaborative situations can be easily dealt with the original Graphplan algorithm by redefining the domain in a proper way. Forward-chaining and backward chaining algorithms are discussed to find infallible plans in adversarial situations. In case such plans cannot be found, the agent can still attempt to find a plan for achieving some part of the goals. A forward-chaining algorithm is also proposed to find plans for agents with independent goals.

Generating Parallel Plans Based on Planning Graph Analysis of Predicate/Transition Nets
Multi-agent systems often exhibit rich parallelism among agents. It is desirable in a multi-agent planner to explicitly represent parallel actions. This paper presents an approach for generating parallel execution plans based on the planning graph analysis. Instead of representing a planning problem by STRIPS operators, we model multi-agent planning domains using Predicate/Transition (PrT) nets...
متن کاملMulti-agent Optimal Path Planning for Mobile Robots in Environment with Obstacles
The paper describes a problem of multi-agent path planning in environment with obstacles. Novel approach to multi-agent optimal path planning, using graph representation of environment models is described. When planning the path of each robot, the graph model of environment is dynamically changed for path correction and collision avoidance. New algorithm applies changes of robots’ paths and spe...
متن کاملTheoretic Study of Distributed Graph Planning ( Extended Abstract )
In situations where it needs the actions of different agents to accomplish a task, the planning for the task involves selecting and organizing the actions belonging to multiple agents. Most existing multi-agent planning approaches to solving such a planning problem rely on the global knowledge of the capabilities of the agents, and are confronted with difficulties when the availability of the g...
متن کاملMulti-agent Coordinated Motion Planning for Monitoring and Controlling the Observed Space in a Security Zone
Monitoring and control of observed space in a security zone equipped with multi cameras and security robots are essential for efficient invader detection. For controlling the observed space, a coordinated motion planning technique is essential when a centralized motion planning solution is realized by a single supervisory system. This technique, however, is known to be very difficult to realize...
متن کاملMulti-agent Path Planning and Network Flow
This paper connects multi-agent path planning on graphs (roadmaps) to network flow problems, showing that the former can be reduced to the later, therefore enabling the application of combinatorial network flow algorithms, as well as general linear program techniques, to multi-agent path planning problems on graphs. Exploiting this connection, we show that when the goals are permutation invaria...
