Multi-vehicle perimeter defense in conical environments

S Bajaj, SD Bopardikar, E Torng… - IEEE Transactions …, 2024 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this article, we consider a perimeter defense problem in a planar conical environment in
which identical vehicles, each having a finite capture radius, seek to defend a concentric …

[HTML][HTML] Search-and-rescue rendezvous

P Leone, J Buwaya, S Alpern - European Journal of Operational Research, 2022 - Elsevier
We consider a new type of asymmetric rendezvous search problem in which player II needs
to give player I a 'gift'which can be in the form of information or material. The gift can either …

Distributed asynchronous rendezvous planning on the line for multi-agent systems

D Ozsoyeller, Ö Özkasap - Future Generation Computer Systems, 2024 - Elsevier
Multi-agent systems have become increasingly significant in various application areas such
as search-and-rescue, exploration, surveillance, and assembly. In this study, we focus on …

Competitive perimeter defense with a turret and a mobile vehicle

S Bajaj, SD Bopardikar, AV Moll, E Torng… - Frontiers in Control …, 2023 - frontiersin.org
We consider perimeter defense problem in a planar conical environment with two
cooperative heterogeneous defenders, ie, a turret and a mobile vehicle, that seek to defend …

[HTML][HTML] Rendezvous in planar environments with obstacles and unknown initial distance

D Ozsoyeller, A Beveridge, V Isler - Artificial Intelligence, 2019 - Elsevier
In the rendezvous search problem, two or more robots at unknown locations should meet
somewhere in the environment as quickly as possible. We study the symmetric rendezvous …

m-rendezvous: Multi-agent asynchronous rendezvous search technique

D Ozsoyeller, Ö Özkasap, M Aloqaily - Future Generation Computer …, 2022 - Elsevier
We study the problem of asynchronous rendezvous search with multiple mobile agents
(robots) in the plane. The goal of the robots is to meet at a location in the environment which …

Multi-robot symmetric rendezvous search on the line

D Ozsoyeller, P Tokekar - IEEE Robotics and Automation …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We study the Symmetric Rendezvous Search Problem for a multi-robot system. There are
robots arbitrarily located on a line. Their goal is to meet somewhere on the line as quickly as …

SIGACT News Online Algorithms Column 40: 2022 in review

A Amouzandeh, S Schmitt, R van Stee - ACM SIGACT News, 2023 - dl.acm.org
In this column, we will discuss some papers in online algorithms that appeared in 2022. As
usual, we make no claim at complete coverage here, and have instead made a selection. If …

Multi-Robot Rendezvous in Unknown Environment with Limited Communication

K Song, G Chen, W Liu, Z **ong - arxiv preprint arxiv:2405.08345, 2024 - arxiv.org
Rendezvous aims at gathering all robots at a specific location, which is an important
collaborative behavior for multirobot systems. However, in an unknown environment, it is …

Rendezvous search with markers that can be dropped at chosen times

P Leone, S Alpern - Naval Research Logistics (NRL), 2018 - Wiley Online Library
The Rendezvous search problem asks how two noncomunnicating players, who move at
unit‐speed after a random placement in the search region (in this article, the line), can …
