Microscopic field theory for structure formation in systems of self-propelled particles with generic torques

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora, Elena Sesé Sansa

We derive a dynamical field theory for self-propelled particles subjected to generic torques and forces by explicitly coarse-graining their microscopic dynamics, described by a many-body Fokker-Planck equation. The model includes both intrinsic torques ind ...

A Noise-Resistant Mixed-Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm for the Automatic Design of Robotic Controllers

Alcherio Martinoli, Cyrill Silvan Baumann

The automatic design of well-performing robotic controllers is still an unsolved problem due to the inherently large parameter space and noisy, often hard-to-define performance metrics, especially when sequential tasks need to be accomplished. Distal contr ...

Real-Time Nonlinear Model Predictive Control for Fast Mechatronic Systems

Petr Listov

This thesis presents an efficient and extensible numerical software framework for real-time model-based control. We are motivated by complex and challenging mechatronic applications spanning from flight control of fixed-wing aircraft and thrust vector cont ...

Predictive control of aerial swarms in cluttered environments

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Enrica Soria

Classical models of aerial swarms often describe global coordinated motion as the combination of local interactions that happen at the individual level. Mathematically, these interactions are represented with potential fields. Despite their explanatory suc ...

Distributed Predictive Drone Swarms in Cluttered Environments

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Enrica Soria

Recent works in aerial robotics show that the self-organized and cohesive flight of swarms can emerge from the exchange of purely local information between neighboring agents. However, most of the current swarm models are not capable of flight in densely c ...

Vision-based Drone Flocking in Outdoor Environments

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Fabian Maximilian Schilling

Decentralized deployment of drone swarms usually relies on inter-agent communication or visual markers that are mounted on the vehicles to simplify their mutual detection. This letter proposes a vision-based detection and tracking algorithm that enables gr ...

Data-Driven Convergence Prediction of Astrobots Swarms

Denis Gillet, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Matin Macktoobian

Astrobots are robotic artifacts whose swarms are used in astrophysical studies to generate the map of the observable universe. These swarms have to be coordinated with respect to various desired observations. Such coordination\footnote{\z{A coordination sa ...

Tracking and Relative Localization of Drone Swarms With a Vision-Based Headset

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano

We address the detection, tracking, and relative localization of the agents of a drone swarm from a human perspective using a headset equipped with a single camera and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). We train and deploy a deep neural network detector o ...

Design of Hesitation Gestures for Nonverbal Human-Robot Negotiation of Conflicts

Aude Billard

When the question of who should get access to a communal resource first is uncertain, people often negotiate via nonverbal communication to resolve the conflict. What should a robot be programmed to do when such conflicts arise in Human-Robot Interaction? ...

Learning convergence prediction of astrobots in multi-object spectrographs

Denis Gillet, Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Matin Macktoobian

Astrobot swarms are used to capture astronomical signals to generate the map of the observable universe for the purpose of dark energy studies. The convergence of each swarm in the course of its coordination has to surpass a particular threshold to yield a ...

SwarmLab: a MATLAB Drone Swarm Simulator

Dario Floreano, Fabrizio Schiano, Enrica Soria

Among the available solutions for drone swarm simulations, we identified a lack of simulation frameworks that allow easy algorithms prototyping, tuning, debugging and performance analysis. Moreover, users who want to dive in the research field of drone swa ...
