Free Energy Principle Based Precision Modulation for Robot Attention: Towards brain inspired robot intelligence

The potential impact of a grand unified theory of the brain on the robotics community might be immense, as it might hold the key to the general artificial intelligence. Such a theory might make revolutionary leaps in robot intelligence by improving the quality of our lives. The last two decades have witnessed the rise of one such brain theory -...

Robust Formation Control against Observation Losses

Distributed formation control has received increasing attention in multiagent systems. Maintaining certain geometry in space is advantageous in many applications such as space interferometry and underwater sensing. At present, there is a variety of distributed solutions for agents to converge to desired formations and track a series of...

Edge State Kalman Filtering for Distributed Formation Control Systems

Formation control problems consider a set of mobile agents with the underlying goal of attaining and maintaining a state where the relative positions of agents are stable in accordance with the desired configuration.<br/>Navigation for formation control is typically achieved through localization in a global reference frame, e.g., via GNSS....
