Swarm robotics is a field in which multiple robots coordinate their collective behavior autonomously to accomplish a given task without any form of centralized control. Training a robotic swarm to complete a multi-objective task under sparse rewards is a challenging task in reinforcement learning (RL). This research has applied a hierarchical training method for the RL training process to address the multi-objective task with sparse rewards. We conduct experiments where a robotic swarm has to accomplish a complex collective foraging problem using computer simulations. The results show that the proposed approach leads to perform more effectively than a conventional RL approach. |
