This paper presents a systematical framework to solve the multiple unmanned aerial
vehicles (multi-UAV) cooperative task assignment problem. Based on a combinatorial …

This paper analyzes task assignment for heterogeneous air vehicles using a guaranteed
conflict-free assignment algorithm, the Consensus Based Bundle Algorithm (CBBA). We …

Unmanned aerial vehicle technology has made great progress in the past and is widely
used in many fields. However, they are unable to meet large-scale and complex missions …

Abstract Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can provide significant contributions to
information gathering in military missions. UAVs can be used to capture both full motion …

This paper discusses the development and testing of a unique testbed consisting of a fleet of
eight autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that was designed as a platform for …

In this paper, we present adaptive and distributed algorithms for motion coordination of a
group of m vehicles. The vehicles must service demands whose time of arrival, spatial …

The collaborative task assignment involved in Command and Control Systems is a key
problem to be solved. The existing researches have their limitations to the natures of …

This paper introduces a new framework for UAV search operations and proposes a new
approach to calculate the minimum number of looks needed to achieve a given level of …

This paper extends a recently developed statistical framework for UAV search with uncertain
probability maps to the case of dynamic targets. The probabilities used to encode the …

This paper presents a new robust approach to the task assignment of unmanned aerial
vehicles (UAVs) operating in uncertain dynamic environments for which the optimization …
