  • 用区域绑定原子命题建模资源不确定性,统一处理逻辑约束与环境未知性。
  • 提出扩展规划决策树与后悔值剪枝策略,实现近线性可扩展的高效求解。
  • 适合大规模异构多机器人系统在部分已知环境中的智能调度,性能显著优于传统方法。

大规模异构多机器人系统(HMRS)的任务分配至关重要,但在部分已知环境(PKE)中处理复杂时序逻辑任务仍存在计算瓶颈。现有方法常难以平衡探索未知区域与利用已知资源的需求,且面临指数级计算复杂度问题。本文提出一种鲁棒规划框架,同时处理高层逻辑约束与环境不确定性,且不牺牲可扩展性。将问题建模为最小-最大后悔优化,引入区域绑定原子命题(RbAP)以在自动机结构中捕捉资源不确定性。为此,提出扩展规划决策树(E-PDT),并设计基于后悔值的分支定界(BnB)策略。不同于依赖先验概率或最坏情况分析的传统方法,本方法动态剪枝次优策略,有效平衡信息获取(探索)与任务完成(利用)的需求。理论分析证明了方法的可行性和完备性。大量数值实验与物理实验证明,该框架在机器人数量和类型增加时呈现近线性可扩展性,解决方案质量与计算效率均显著优于基于MILP的基线方法。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Efficient task allocation for large-scale Heterogeneous Multi-Robot Systems (HMRS) is critical, yet dealing with complex temporal logic tasks in partially known environment (PKE) remains a computational bottleneck. Existing approaches often struggle to balance exploring uncertain regions and exploiting known resources, while also suffering from exponential computational complexity. To address these issues, this paper presents a robust planning framework that simultaneously handles high-level logical constraints and environmental uncertainty without sacrificing scalability. We formulate the problem as a min-max regret optimization, proposing a Region-Binding Atomic Proposition (RbAP) to capture resource uncertainty within the automaton structure. To solve this, we propose the Extended Planning Decision Tree (E-PDT) equipped with a novel Regret-based Branch-and-Bound (BnB) strategy. Unlike traditional methods that rely on prior probabilities or worst-case analysis, our approach dynamically prunes suboptimal policies, effectively balancing the need for information gathering (exploration) and task completion (exploitation). Theoretical analysis confirms the feasibility and completeness of our approach. Extensive numerical and physical experiments demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves near-linear scalability with respect to the number of robots and types, significantly outperforming MILP-based baselines in both solution quality and computational efficiency.
