Abstract Purpose of Review The goal of this review is to evaluate the current status of multi-
robot systems in the context of search and rescue. This includes an investigation of their …

Abstract Purpose of Review Robotic patrolling aims at protecting a physical environment by
deploying a team of one or more autonomous mobile robots in it. A key problem in this …

We introduce and investigate the recharging rendezvous problem for a collaborative team of
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs), in which UAVs …

This article surveys recent advancements in strategy designs for persistent robotic
surveillance tasks, with a focus on stochastic approaches. The problem describes how …

In this paper, we study the well-known team orienteering problem where a fleet of robots
collects rewards by visiting locations. Usually, the rewards are assumed to be known to the …

Graph-patrolling problems in the adversarial domain typically embed models and
assumptions about how hostile events, from which an environment must be protected, are …

In this paper we study multi-robot path planning for persistent monitoring tasks. We consider
the case where robots have a limited battery capacity with a discharge time $ D $. We …

We consider the problem of persistent monitoring of a finite number of interconnected
geographical nodes for event detection via a group of heterogeneous mobile agents. We …

This article studies a stochastic robotic surveillance problem where a mobile robot moves
randomly on a graph to capture a potential intruder that strategically attacks a location on the …

Graph patrolling algorithms provide effective strategies for coordinating mobile robots in the
context of autonomously surveilling valuable assets. Optimizing patrolling strategies often …
