Overview

The idea for this portion of the course is for each person to conduct independent literature research in multi robot systems. We'll use the following process:

• We will survey all members of the class to discover their backgrounds and interests.
• The instructor will assign individual students to teams.
• Teams will bid for topics, and topics will be assigned.
• Each team will give two presentations.

Topics

• Ant navigation
• Ant task assignment
• Honeybee communication
• Flocking, herding, swarming
• Predator / prey
• Collective sorting and clustering
• Collective construction
• Robot formation control
• Coordinated control for sensing
• Optimal task allocation
• Task allocation and coordination in noisy environments
• High performance team path planning (RRTs)
• Self assembly in modular robotics
• Multirobot team learning
• Robot soccer
• Opponent modeling
• Behavior-based multi robot systems
• Planning-based multi robot systems
• Communication in multi robot systems
• Stigmergy
• Other topic that you suggest

Where to Find Papers

Here are lists of papers developed by other researchers that are a good source of material for your presentations:

• A list developed by Radhika Nagpal at Harvard: [[1]]
• A list developed by Maja Mataric at USC: [[2]]
• A list developed by Dylan Shell at Texas A&M: [[3]]
