Graph Chatbot

Chattez avec Graph Search

Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.

AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.

Towards Optimally Efficient Field Estimation with Threshold-Based Pruning in Real Robotic Sensor Networks

Alcherio Martinoli, Amanda Stella Markowska Prorok, Christopher Cianci

The efficiency of distributed sensor networks depends on an optimal trade-off between the usage of resources and data quality. The work in this paper addresses the problem of optimizing this trade-off in a self-configured distributed robotic sensor network ...

Distributed intelligent algorithms for robotic sensor networks monitoring discontinuous anisotropic environmental fields

Christopher Cianci

Robotic sensor networks, at the junction between distributed robotics and wireless sensor networks, represent a strategic convergence between mobile and networked systems. In this thesis, we have begun to explore this crossover, and where possible, to brin ...

Dynamic Control of a Robotic Swarm using a Service-Oriented Architecture

Christopher Cianci, Vlad Trifa

The development, deployment, and control of groups of robots is a tedious process even for experienced roboticists. Particularly in heterogeneous systems a high granularity of control and visibility is difficult to achieve. The lack of standardized interfa ...

SwisTrack - A Flexible Open Source Tracking Software for Multi-Agent Systems

Alcherio Martinoli, Jacques Jacot, Nicolaus Correll, Thomas Lochmatter, Christopher Cianci, Pierre Roduit

Vision-based tracking is used in nearly all robotic laboratories for monitoring and extracting of agent positions, orientations, and trajectories. However, there is currently no accepted standard software solution available, so many research groups resort ...

Self-Organized Embedded Sensor/Actuator Networks for ''Smart'' Turbines

Alcherio Martinoli, Nicolaus Correll, Christopher Cianci, Xavier Raemy

Combining networks of static sensors with minimalist robotic swarms might enable a new generation of micromachinery equipped with sensor and actuator networks for inspection, maintenance, and repair. In such a scenario, limited capabilities of swarm member ...
