LSAR: Multi-UAV Collaboration for Search and Rescue Missions
TL;DR: Because the LSAR algorithm focuses on the center of the disaster, it finds more survivors and rescues them faster than the other algorithms, with an average of 55%~77%, which means more scalability and coverage is obtained in comparison to other algorithms.

A Novel Hybrid Auction Algorithm for Multi-UAVs Dynamic Task Assignment
TL;DR: This work proposes a novel hybrid “Two-Stage” auction algorithm based on the hierarchical decision mechanism and an improved objective function, which simultaneously realizes heterogeneous multi-UAVs dynamic task assignment with limited resources of each UAV and avoidance obstacle path planning.
Unsupervised learning based coordinated multi-task allocation for unmanned surface vehicles
TL;DR: A holistic task management architecture has been designed by integrating both the task allocation and task execution algorithms, and a number of simulations in both simulated and practical maritime environments have been carried out to validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

A Formal Analysis and Taxonomy of Task Allocation in Multi-Robot Systems
Brian P. Gerkey,Maja J. Matarić +1 more
TL;DR: A domain-independent taxonomy of MRTA problems is given, and it is shown how many such problems can be viewed as instances of other, well-studied, optimization problems.
A survey on optimization metaheuristics
TL;DR: The components and concepts that are used in various metaheuristics are outlined in order to analyze their similarities and differences and the classification adopted in this paper differentiates between single solution based metaheURistics and population based meta heuristics.

Consensus-Based Decentralized Auctions for Robust Task Allocation
TL;DR: This paper addresses task allocation to coordinate a fleet of autonomous vehicles by presenting two decentralized algorithms: the consensus-based auction algorithm (CBAA) and its generalization to the multi-assignment problem, i.e., theensus-based bundle algorithm ( CBBA).
