Abstract

AbstractMulti-robot systems are frequently used for tasks involving searching, so it is important to be able to estimate the searching time. Yet, simulation approaches and real-world experiments to determine searching time can be cumbersome and even impractical. In this work, we propose a correlated-random-walk based model to efficiently approximate hitting time distributions of multi-robot systems in large arenas. We verified the computational results by using ARGoS, a physics-based simulator. We found that the Gamma distribution can provide a good fit to the hitting time distributions of random walkers.KeywordsMulti-robot systemsCorrelated random walkHitting time distribution
