Decentralised Self-Organising Maps for Multi-Robot Information Gathering

Graeme Best,Geoffrey A. Hollinger,Graeme Best,Geoffrey A. Hollinger

This paper presents a new coordination algorithm for decentralised multi-robot information gathering. We consider planning for an online variant of the multi-agent orienteering problem with neighbourhoods. This formulation closely aligns with a number of important tasks in robotics, including inspection, surveillance, and reconnaissance. We propose a decentralised variant of the self-organising ma...
