Robot exploration with combinatorial auctions
Abstract
We study how to coordinate a team of mobile robots to visit a number of given targets in a partially unknown terrain. Robotics researchers have studied single-item auctions to perform this exploration task but these do not make synergies between the targets into account. We therefore design combinatorial auctions, propose different combinatorial bidding strategies and compare their performance with each other, as well as to single item auctions and an optimal centralized mechanism. Our computational results in teambots, a multi-robot simulator, indicate that combinatorial auctions generally lead to significantly superior team performance than single-item auctions, and generate very good results compared to an optimal centralized mechanism.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
