Navigation-based optimization of stochastic strategies for allocating a robot swarm among multiple sites
— We present a decentralized, communication-less approach to the dynamic allocation of a swarm of homogeneous robots to a target distribution among multiple sites. Building on ou...

Self-Stabilization and Behavioral Diversity of Embodied Adaptive Locomotion
Locomotion is of fundamental importance in understanding adaptive behavior. In this paper we present two case studies of robot locomotion that demonstrate how higher level of behav...
