A-STC: auction-based spanning tree coverage algorithm formotion planning of cooperative robots Research Article

Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering 2019, Volume 20, Issue 1, Pages 18-31 doi: 10.1631/FITEE.1800551
The multi-robot coverage motion planning (MCMP) problem in which every reachable area must be covered is common in multi-robot systems. To deal with the MCMP problem, we propose an efficient, complete, and off-line algorithm, named the “auction-based spanning tree coverage (A-STC)” algorithm. First, the configuration space is divided into mega cells whose size is twice the minimum coverage range of a robot. Based on connection relationships among mega cells, a graph structure can be obtained. A robot that circumnavigates a spanning tree of the graph can generate a coverage trajectory. Then, the proposed algorithm adopts an auction mechanism to construct one spanning tree for each robot. In this mechanism, an auctioneer robot chooses a suitable vertex of the graph as an auction item from neighboring vertexes of its spanning tree by heuristic rules. A bidder robot submits a proper bid to the auctioneer according to the auction vertexes’ relationships with the spanning tree of the robot and the estimated length of its trajectory. The estimated length is calculated based on vertexes and edges in the spanning tree. The bidder with the highest bid is selected as a winner to reduce the makespan of the coverage task. After auction processes, acceptable coverage trajectories can be planned rapidly. Computational experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed MCMP algorithm and the method for estimating trajectory lengths. The proposed algorithm is also compared with the state-of-the-art algorithms. The comparative results show that the A-STC algorithm has apparent advantages in terms of the running time and the makespan for large crowded configuration spaces.

An obstacle avoidance strategy for mobile robot is presented based on obstacle position and size information. Furthermore, rational robot paths in obstacle avoidance are discussed in detail, which leads to the final important result of optimal path for mobile robot to avoid an obstacle. Simple as the results are, they have been shown by simulations te be effective and convenient in implementation. A good application prospect of the result can thus be expected.

To solve the path planning problem of mobile robots in complicated environments, combining the small computational amount of artificial potential field and the adaptive regulation ability of artificial immune network, an improved immunity path planning algorithm is presented. To further improve the search ability and convergence of immune network, the planning results of artificial potential field are taken as the prior knowledge to construct the guidance weight, and the antibody instruction definition and distance changes after the antibody transition are taken as the variables to construct the antibody transmission probability operator. Compared with the correlative planning algorithms, simulation results indicate that the optimal planning ability and network convergence of proposed algorithm is highly improved.

In this paper, a novel flexible robot system with a constrained tendon-driven serpentine manipulator (CTSM) is presented. The CTSM gives the robot a larger workspace, more dexterous manipulation, and controllable stiffness compared with the da Vinci surgical robot and traditional flexible robots. The robot is tele-operated using the Novint Falcon haptic device. Two control modes are implemented, direct mapping and incremental mode. In each mode, the robot can be manipulated using either the highest stiffness scheme or the minimal movement scheme. The advantages of the CTSM are shown by simulation and experimental results.

A Spatial–Temporal Network Perspective for the Propagation Dynamics of Air Traffic Delays Article

Intractable delays occur in air traffic due to the imbalance between ever-increasing air traffic demand and limited airspace capacity. As air traffic is associated with complex air transport systems, delays can be magnified and propagated throughout these systems, resulting in the emergent behavior known as delay propagation. An understanding of delay propagation dynamics is pertinent to modern air traffic management. In this work, we present a complex network perspective of delay propagation dynamics. Specifically, we model air traffic scenarios using spatial-temporal networks with airports as the nodes. To establish the dynamic edges between the nodes, we develop a delay propagation method and apply it to a given set of air traffic schedules. Based on the constructed spatial–temporal networks, we suggest three metrics—magnitude, severity, and speed—to gauge delay propagation dynamics. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we carry out case studies on domestic flights in the Southeastern Asia region (SAR) and the United States. Experiments demonstrate that the propagation magnitude in terms of the number of flights affected by delay propagation and the amount of propagated delays for the US traffic are respectively five and ten times those of the SAR. Experiments further reveal that the propagation speed for US traffic is eight times faster than that of the SAR. The delay propagation dynamics reveal that about six hub airports in the SAR have significant propagated delays, while the situation in the United States is considerably worse, with a corresponding number of around 16. This work provides a potent tool for tracing the evolution of air traffic delays.

Strategic Study of CAE 2006, Volume 8, Issue 4, Pages 28-31
At present, there are some conception confusions about organization, team and group, and also team formation is still in qualitative analysis phase in multi-robot field. The paper, using Markov course and evolution calculation theory for reference, researches the difference between team and organization in conception and the formation mechanism of robot team from cooperative entity layer and ability layer. This paper proposes and describes a dynamic evolution model about robot team formation. There hasn't been a similar model at home and abroad now. The model can not only wholly describe robot team, but also quantitatively describe dynamical evolution course of the team formation.

Selective and Independent Control of Microrobots in a Magnetic Field: A Review Review

Due to the unique advantages of untethered connections and a high level of safety, magnetic actuation is a commonly used technique in microrobotics for propelling microswimmers, manipulating fluidics, and navigating medical devices. However, the microrobots or actuated targets are exposed to identical and homogeneous driving magnetic fields, which makes it challenging to selectively control a single robot or a specific group among multiple targets. This paper reviews recent advances in selective and independent control for multi-microrobot or multi-joint microrobot systems driven by magnetic fields. These selective and independent control approaches decode the global magnetic field into specific configurations for the individualized actuation of multiple microrobots. The methods include applying distinct properties for each microrobot or creating heterogeneous magnetic fields at different locations. Independent control of the selected targets enables the effective cooperation of multiple microrobots to accomplish more complicated operations. In this review, we provide a unique perspective to explain how to manipulate individual microrobots to achieve a high level of group intelligence on a small scale, which could help accelerate the translational development of microrobotic technology for real-life applications.
