Asymmetry in energy-harvesting wireless sensor network operation modeled via Bayesian games

E Gindullina, L Badia - … IEEE 18th International Symposium on A …, 2017 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider the management of an energy harvesting wireless sensor network, inspired by
game theory so as to obtain a distributed multi-agent operation. In particular, we focus on …

A scalable information theoretic approach to distributed robot coordination

BJ Julian, M Angermann… - 2011 IEEE/RSJ …, 2011 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper presents a scalable information theoretic approach to infer the state of an
environment by distributively controlling robots equipped with sensors. The robots iteratively …

Assign and appraise: achieving optimal performance in collaborative teams

EY Huang, D Paccagnan, W Mei… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2022 - ieeexplore.ieee.org

Distributed coordination of a formation of heterogeneous agents with individual regrets and asynchronous communications

N Carlési, P Bianchi - 2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference …, 2012 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider a flotilla composed of N autonomous mobile agents. Each agent ignores its
absolute position but collects noisy measurements of the relative position of other agents. It …

Incentive schemes for participatory sensing

G Radanovic, B Faltings - … of the 14th international conference on …, 2015 - infoscience.epfl.ch
We consider a participatory sensing scenario where a group of private sensors observes the
same phenomenon, such as air pollution. Since sensors need to be installed and …

Proportional dynamic consensus in open multi-agent systems

M Franceschelli, P Frasca - 2018 IEEE Conference on Decision …, 2018 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper we investigate a dynamic consensus problem for an open multi-agent system.
Open multi-agent systems are characterized by a time-varying set of agents connected by a …

Local average consensus in distributed measurement of spatial–temporal varying parameters: 1D case

K Cai, BDO Anderson, C Yu, G Mao - Automatica, 2015 - Elsevier
We study a new variant of consensus problems, termed 'local average consensus', in
networks of agents. We consider the task of using sensor networks to perform distributed …

Decentralized decision-making over multi-task networks

S Khawatmi, AM Zoubir, AH Sayed - Signal Processing, 2019 - Elsevier
In important applications involving multi-task networks with multiple objectives, agents in the
network need to decide between these multiple objectives and reach an agreement about …

Distributed decision through self-synchronizing sensor networks in the presence of propagation delays and nonreciprocal channels

G Scutari, S Barbarossa… - 2007 IEEE 8th Workshop …, 2007 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper we propose and analyze a distributed algorithm for achieving globally optimal
decisions, either estimation or detection, through a self-synchronization mechanism among …

The role of the environment in collective perception: A generic complexity measure

D Trendafilov, A Almansoori, T Carletti… - Artificial Life Conference …, 2023 - direct.mit.edu
We propose a novel generic information-theoretic framework for characterizing the task
difficulty in the Collective Perception paradigm. Our formalism builds on the notion of …
