In swarm robotics multiple robots collectively solve problems by forming advantageous
structures and behaviors similar to the ones observed in natural systems, such as swarms of …

Many fish species gather by the thousands and swim in harmony with seemingly no effort.
Large schools display a range of impressive collective behaviors, from simple shoaling to …

My major motivation to think about swarm robotics is the question of how probabilistic local
actions of small robots sum up to rational global patterns shown by the swarm. For the …

Swarm Intelligence (SI) is a popular multi-agent framework that has been originally inspired
by swarm behaviors observed in natural systems, such as ant and bee colonies. In a system …

Closeup exploration of underwater life requires new forms of interaction, using biomimetic
creatures that are capable of agile swimming maneuvers, equipped with cameras, and …

As a cross-cutting field between ocean development and multi-robot system (MRS), the
underwater multi-robot system (UMRS) has gained increasing attention from researchers …

Living organisms are far superior to state-of-the-art robots as they have evolved a wide
