Within the last couple of decades, there has been increasing research into the use of mobile
robots for gas sensing applications. This has led to many different branches of research …

This article describes a Voronoi-based path generation (VPG) algorithm for an energy-
constrained mobile robot, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The algorithm solves …

Active Position Estimation (APE) is the task of localizing one or more targets using one or
more sensing platforms. APE is a key task for search and rescue missions, wildlife …

摘要从世界范围看, 化石能源目前仍是能源供应的主体. 作为化石能源开发的主要阵地,
石油工业对多种气体的检测与监测需求强烈, 这对于环境保护和安全生产具有重要意义 …

One driving application for multi-robots is source seeking, especially in the hazardous
environment. It consists of two essential subtasks: source location and path search. Nature …

This article presents a new decentralized multi-agent information-theoretic (DeMAIT) control
algorithm for mobile sensors (agents). The algorithm leverages Bayesian estimation and …

In damp environment of underground utility tunnels, natural gas pipelines may corrode,
resulting in leakage from small holes. Considering the flammable and explosive properties …

This paper proposes different levels of coordination methods for information-driven source
search and estimation in a stochastic and turbulent atmospheric dispersion event. Multiple …

We present fully autonomous source seeking onboard a highly constrained nano
quadcopter, by contributing application-specific system and observation feature design to …

In this work, we present a method to localize a source in complex urban environments using
particle swarm optimization (PSO). Instead of using PSO to minimize the difference between …
