چکیده

Swarm robotics is a branch of collective robotics that outperforms many other systems due to its large number of robots. It allows for performing several tasks that are beyond the capability of a single or multi robot systems. Its global behaviour emerges from the local rules implemented on the level of its individual robots. Thus, estimating the obtained performance in a self-organized manner represents one of the main challenges, especially under complex dynamics like spatial interferences. In this paper, we exploit the central limit theorem (CLT) to analyse and estimate the swarm performance over long-term deadlines and under potential spatial interferences. The developed model is tested on the well-known foraging task, however, it can be generalized to be applied on any constrictive robotic task.

Analysis of long-term swarm performance based on short-term experiments

Swarm robotics is a branch of collective robotics systems that offers a set of remarkable advantages over other systems. The global behavior of swarm systems emerges from the local rules implemented at the individual level. Therefore, characterizing a global performance obtained at the swarm level is one of the main challenges, especially under complex dynamics such as spatial interferences. In...

The spatial learning and memory performance in methamphetamine–sensitized and withdrawn rats

Objective(s): There is controversial evidence about the effect of methamphetamine (METH) on spatial memory. We tested the time- dependent effects of METH on spatial short-term (working) and long-term (reference) memory in METH –sensitized and withdrawn rats in the Morris water maze. Materials and Methods: Rats were sensitized to METH (2 mg/kg, daily/5 days, SC). Rats were trained in water maze ...

Long-term spatial and temporal variability of ambient carbon monoxide in Urmia, Iran

One of the pillars of epidemiologic research on the long-term health effects of air pollution is to estimate the chronic exposures over space and time. In this study, we aimed to measure the intra-urban ambient carbon monoxide (CO) concentrations within Urmia city in Iran, and to build a model within the geographic information system (GIS) to estimate the annual and seasonal means anywhere with...

Effects of exercise on spatial memory deficits induced by nucleus basalis magnocellularis lesions

Introduction: Previous studies have shown that exercise enhances cognitive and functional capacities in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we investigated the effect of long-term (60 days) and short- term (10 days) exercise on the spatial memory deficits in an animal model of AD. Methods: Fifty male rats were divided into 5 groups 1) intact, 2) sham, 3) sham-Alzheimer 4) ...
