We present a distributed Bayesian algorithm for robot swarms to classify a spatially distributed feature of an environment. This type of "go/no-go" decision appears in applications where a group of robots must collectively choose whether to take action, such as determining if a farm field should be treated for pests. Previous bio-inspired approaches to decentralized decision-making in robotics lac...
