Geometric Learning and Topological Inference with Biobotic Networks: Convergence Analysis
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
Preserved Fulltext
In this study, we present and analyze a framework for geometric and topological estimation for mapping of unknown environments. ...
We consider agents mimicking motion behaviors of cyborg insects, known as biobots, and exploit coordinate-free local interactions among them to infer geometric and topological information about the environment ...
Our future work will include the results of experiments for implementation of the proposed approach on Madagascar hissing biobots in order to realize exploration and mapping with cyborg insect networks ...

In this paper, we present an approach for dynamic exploration and mapping of unknown environments using a swarm of biobotic sensing agents, with a stochastic natural motion model and a leading agent (e.g ...
A sliding window strategy is adopted in conjunction with a topological mapping strategy based on local interactions among the swarm in a coordinate-free fashion to obtain local maps of the environment. ...
Conclusion and Future Work In this work, we presented a dynamic mapping approach for biobotic sensor networks under weak localization information, to obtain estimated local and global topological maps ...
