Learning for Dynamic Subteaming and Voluntary Waiting in Heterogeneous Multi-Robot Collaborative Scheduling

Williard Joshua Jose,Hao Zhang,Williard Joshua Jose,Hao Zhang

Coordinating heterogeneous robots is essential for autonomous multi-robot teaming. To execute a set of dependent tasks as quickly as possible, and to complete tasks that cannot be addressed by individual robots, it is necessary to form subteams that can collaboratively finish the tasks. It is also advantageous for robots to wait for teammates and tasks to become available in order to form better s...
