AI总结:

本研究通过觅食场景分析,发现任务专门化在有限预算下可能降低效率,通用行为更优。

摘要:

任务专门化可以在多机器人系统中导致更简单的机器人行为和更高的效率。先前的研究表明,在进化优化过程中会出现任务专门化,但主要关注可行性而非成本。在本研究中,我们通过觅食场景首次尝试对机器人群体中任务专门化的成本效益进行分析。我们进化出用于整个任务的通用行为和用于子任务的专门行为,并在有限的评估预算内进行进化。我们证明通用行为可以成功优化,而进化出的任务专门控制器无法高效合作,导致性能劣于通用行为。因此,当优化预算有限时,任务专门化并不一定提高效率。

英文摘要:

Task specialization can lead to simpler robot behaviors and higher efficiency in multi-robot systems. Previous works have shown the emergence of task specialization during evolutionary optimization, focusing on feasibility rather than costs. In this study, we take first steps toward a cost-benefit analysis of task specialization in robot swarms using a foraging scenario. We evolve artificial neural networks as generalist behaviors for the entire task and as task-specialist behaviors for subtasks within a limited evaluation budget. We show that generalist behaviors can be successfully optimized while the evolved task-specialist controllers fail to cooperate efficiently, resulting in worse performance than the generalists. Consequently, task specialization does not necessarily improve efficiency when optimization budget is limited.
