The use of aerial swarms to solve real-world problems has been increasing steadily,
accompanied by falling prices and improving performance of communication, sensing, and …

Control of autonomous vehicles for applications such as surveillance, search, and
exploration has been a topic of great interest over the past two decades. In particular, there …

In this paper, a backstepping based indirect adaptive control design and an alternative direct
adaptive control scheme, both with guaranteed transient and steady-state tracking …

In this work we consider the problem of controlling a team of micro-aerial vehicles moving
quickly through a three-dimensional environment while maintaining a tight formation. The …

This paper addresses a multirobot scheduling problem in which autonomous unmanned
aerial vehicles (UAVs) must be recharged during a long-term mission. The proposal is to …

We study the problem of finding a tour for an energy-limited Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)
to visit a set of sites in the least amount of time. We envision scenarios where the UAV can …

Aquaculture, especially fish farming, plays a vital role in ensuring food security in the United
States and worldwide. However, for fish farming to be sustainable and economically viable …

In this paper, we consider the problem of planning a path for a robot to monitor a known set
of features of interest in an environment. We represent the environment as a graph with …

We study the problem of planning a tour for an energy‐limited Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
(UAV) to visit a set of sites in the least amount of time. We envision scenarios where the UAV …

We propose the correlated orienteering problem (COP) as a novel nonlinear extension to
the classic orienteering problem (OP). With the introduction of COP, it becomes possible to …
