Observation-Based Cooperation in Multi-Robot Systems

Presenter: Briana Wellman (The University of Alabama)
In multirobot systems, robots communicate explicitly or implicitly. Explicit communications, or messages sent directly between robots, can be computationally inefficient and result in performance degradation when communications fail. In implicit communications, robots decide their actions based on other robots' actions and what they observe in the environment. In our approach, we investigate robots performing exploration tasks using implicit communications in the form of observation of intent and state.
