Abstract

The paper presents a multi-agent surveillance system for use in monitoring scenes involving animate (pedestrians) and inanimate (vehicles) objects. Agents are dynamically created and assigned to the objects identified, located and tracked by a vision system, and to pairs of objects in close proximity. The multi-agent framework infers the most probable interpretation of the scene dynamics from the information provided by the vision system.

    Citation Excerpt :

    Cooperative and formation control can enhance robustness of multi-agents systems (MASs) to mission failure and minimize the mission cost. Formation flight (Li & Liu, 2008), surveillance (Remagnino, Tan, & Baker, 1998), multi-agent coverage (Zhai & Hong, 2013), save and rescue (Al Tair, Taha, Al-Qutayri, & Dias, 2015), and cooperative payload transport (Klausen, Fossen, Johansen, & Aguiar, 2015) are some existing applications of multi-agent coordination. The problem statement is presented in Section 2 and is followed by the derivation of the MAS collective and error dynamics in Section 3.
