Learning-Based Multi-UAV Flocking Control With Limited Visual Field and Instinctive Repulsion

This article explores deep reinforcement learning (DRL) for the flocking control of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms. The flocking control policy is trained using a centralized-learning-decentralized-execution (CTDE) paradigm, where a centralized critic network augmented with additional information about the entire UAV swarm is utilized...

Learning-Based Multi-Robot Formation Control With Obstacle Avoidance

Multi-robot formation control has been intensively studied in recent years. In practical applications, the multi-robot system's ability to independently change the formation to avoid collision among the robots or with obstacles is critical. In this study, a multi-robot adaptive formation control framework based on deep reinforcement learning...

Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Sintering Densification of Multi-Scale Silver Layer

Based on molecular dynamics (MD), in this study, a model was established to simulate the initial coating morphology of silver paste by using a random algorithm, and the effects of different sizes of particles on sintering porosity were also analyzed. The MD result reveals that compared with the sintering process using large-scale silver...
