Localization, which is the determination of one's location in a known terrain, is a fundamental task for autonomous robots. This paper presents several new basic theoretical results about localization. We show that, even under the idealized assumptions of accurate sensing and perfect actuation, it is intrinsically difficult to localize a robot with a travel distance that is close to minimal. Our result...
We study multi-robot routing problems (MR-LDR) where a team of robots has to visit a set of given targets with linear decreasing rewards over time, such as required for the delivery of goods to rescue sites after disasters. The objective of MR-LDR is to find an assignment of targets to robots and a path for each robot that maximizes the surplus, which is defined to be the total reward collected by...
