Single-Agent Policies for the Multi-Agent Persistent Surveillance Problem via Artificial Heterogeneity

Modelling and planning as well as Machine Learning techniques such as Reinforcement Learning are often difficult in multi-agent problems. With increasing numbers of agents the decision space grows rapidly and is made increasingly complex through …

Decentralised Multi-Demic Evolutionary Approach to the Dynamic Multi-Agent Travelling Salesman Problem

The Travelling Salesman and its variations are some of the most well known NP hard optimisation problems. This paper looks to use both centralised and decentralised implementations of Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) to solve a dynamic variant of the …

Decentralised Multi-Demic Evolutionary Approach to the Dynamic Multi-Agent Travelling Salesman Problem

This paper looks to use both centralised and decentralised implementations of Evolutionary Algorithms to solve a dynamic variant of the Multi-Agent Travelling Salesman Problem. The problem is allocating an active set of tasks to a set of agents …
