Conference Paper
We show that an MDL-based graph clustering method may be used for discovering generalized clusters from a graph and then extend it so that the input is a network. We define intuitively that generalized clusters contain at least a cluster in which nodes are connected sparsely and the cluster is connected either densely to another cluster or sparsely...
Conference Paper
This paper presents a simulator for the behaviors of swarm robots based on a Dynamic Bayesian Network (DBN). Our task is to design each robot’s controller which enables the robot to patrol as many regions as possible without collisions. As the first step, we use two swarm robots, each of which has two motors each of which is connected to a wheel an...
Chapter
In this chapter, we describe a novel design method of swarm robots based on the dynamic Bayesian network. Recently, an increasing attention has been paid to swarm robots due to their scalability, flexibility, cost-performance, and robustness. Designing swarm robots so that they exhibit intended collective behaviors is considered as the most challen...
