Towards predicting robot team performance

چکیده
In this paper we develop a method for predicting the performance of human-robot teams consisting of a single user and multiple robots. To predict the performance of a team, we first measure the neglect tolerance and interface efficiency of the interaction schemes employed by the team. We then describe a method that shows how these measurements can be used to estimate the team’s performance. We validate the performance prediction algorithm by comparing predictions to actual results when a user guides three robots in an exploration and goal-finding mission; comparisons are made for various system configurations.

The Effect of Coalition Imbalance on Multi-Robot Teams
The notion of coalition imbalance refers to the variance in the individual contributions of team members towards the completion of a multi-agent (robot) task. Until now, the literature has studied imbalance purely from a fault tolerance perspective where more balanced coalitions were shown to be more robust to individual robot failure. However, the effect that balancing has on the overall perfo...
متن کاملInterns’ Viewpoints about Nurses’ Capability and Behavior towards Patients and Interns
Introduction. Taking care of patients is a team work and in each team work the members’ performance has a direct impact on their relationship and efforts in achieving their common goal. It is necessary that medical interns as a member of health care team pay attention to the health care services provided by nurses. The purpose of this study was to determine the viewpoints of interns about nurse...
متن کاملConsensus or Divergence: Examining the Aggregation of Individual to Team Level Adoption of Innovations
The examination of multi-level phenomenon has been a perennial issue within the IS discipline. However, despite recent advancements, we see a gap in the literature in our lack of understanding of how team level perceptions, when aggregated, predict team level performance. In this paper, we report upon an experimental study of 216 subjects, representing 72 3-person teams who performed a business...
متن کاملLearning Roles: Behavioral Diversity in Robot Teams
This paper describes research investigating behavioral specialization in learning robot teams. Each agent is provided a common set of skills (motor schema-based behavioral assemblages) from which it builds a taskachieving strategy using reinforcement learning. The agents learn individually to activate particular behavioral assemblages given their current situation and a reward signal. The exper...
متن کاملSTP: Skills, Tactics and Plays for Multi-Robot Control in Adversarial Environments
In an adversarial multi-robot task, such as playing robot soccer, decisions for team and single robot behavior must be made quickly to take advantage of short-term fortuitous events when they occur. When no such opportunities exist, the team must execute sequences of coordinated action across team members that increases the likelihood of future opportunities. We have developed a hierarchical ar...
