Multi-Robot Perception and Action: World Modeling and Task Allocation

Multi-Robot Systems (MRS) is one research area where Artificial Intelligence and robotic techniques can be efficiently integrated. In this paper, we attempt to highlight some common aspects of the robotic and AI literature on multi-robot systems by surveying the most recent works in such an area. In particular, we focus on works that deal with the problem of coordinating a team of autonomous robots perceiving the world and acting in it to carry out a common task. By surveying these works, we attempt to give a new perspective on the problem of multi-robot world modeling and distributed multi-robot coordinatio
