Abstract
Example computer-implemented methods and systems for anomaly-sensing based multi-agent navigation are disclosed. One example computer-implemented method includes: receiving relative distance data specifying distance between at least one pair of agents of a plurality of agents, each of a first subset of the plurality of agents having an anomaly sensor subsystem; determining a set of relative pose vectors based at least in part on the relative distance data; receiving anomaly data from at least one anomaly sensor subsystem of one of the plurality of agents, obtaining pre-surveyed map data; determining global pose data of the plurality of agents based on the relative distance data and based on comparing the anomaly data to the pre-surveyed map data; and assigning a task to at least one of the plurality of agents based at least in part on a specialized operational capability of the at least one of the plurality of agents.
