Title
Reinforcement Learning in Navigation and Cooperative Mapping
Abstract
Reinforcement learning is becoming a more relevant area of research, as it allows robotic agents to learn complex tasks with evaluative feedback. One of the most critical challenges in robotics is the simultaneous localization and mapping problem. We have built a reinforcement learning environment where we trained an agent to control a team of two robots, with the task of cooperatively mapping a common area. Our training process takes the robots' sensors data as input and outputs the control action for each robot. We verified that our agent performed well in a small test environment, with little training, indicating that our approach could be a good starting point for end-to-end reinforcement learning for cooperative mapping.
