چکیده

In the current military environment, village searches are conducted daily. To accomplish a village search task in accordance with orders provided by higher headquarters, the mission leaders must plan and allocate resources (e.g., soldiers, robots, military working dogs, unmanned aerial vehicles) efficiently. The plans these leaders create are based on personal experience and planning data found in military field manuals. The Robust People, Animals, and Robots Search (RoPARS) planning tool for village search developed at Colorado State University can assist military leaders in the planning process. The tool consists of a graphical user interface and a resource allocation engine. This tool allows a user to create a simulation for a given village. These simulations allow military leaders to visualize how a given plan would be executed and to develop plans for the mission that are robust against uncertainty in the environment.

A Mathematical Model of Robust Military Village Searches for Decision Making Purposes

In the modern, fast-paced, high technology military, making decisions on how to best utilize resources to accomplish a mission with a set of specified constraints is difficult. A Cordon and Search of a village (i.e., village search) is an example of such a mission. Leaders must plan the mission, assigning assets (e.g., soldiers, robots, unmanned aerial vehicles, military working dogs) to accomp...

A New Single-Display Intelligent Adaptive Interface for Controlling a Group of UAVs

The increasing use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or drones in different civil and military operations has attracted attention of many researchers and science communities. One of the most notable challenges in this field is supervising and controlling a group or a team of UAVs by a single user. Thereupon, we proposed a new intelligent adaptive interface (IAI) to overcome to this challenge. ...
