Context-Aware Deep Q-Network for Decentralized Cooperative Reconnaissance by a Robotic Swarm

This paper addresses the problem of decentralized cooperation in a robotic swarm. The aim is to perform target search and destroy operation in an unknown/uncertain environment, without any communication within the swarm. The aim is to perform target search and destroy operation in an unknown/uncertain environment, without any communication within the swarm. The environment consists of heterogeneous targets; some that can be handled by a single robot and others that require a team of cooperating robots to neutralize the targets. The system fives the error of "Bad character(s) in field Abstract" for no reason. Please refer to manuscript for the full abstract
