Distributed optimization provides a framework for deriving distributed algorithms for a variety of multi-robot problems. This tutorial constitutes the first part of a two-part series on distributed optimization applied to multi-robot problems, which seeks to advance the application of distributed optimization in robotics. In this tutorial, we demonstrate that many canonical … [Read more...] about Distributed Optimization Methods for Multi-Robot Systems: Part 1—A Tutorial [Tutorial]

Vision-Based Cow Tracking and Feeding Monitoring for Autonomous Livestock Farming: The YOLOv5s-CA+DeepSORT-Vision Transformer
Animal tracking and feeding monitoring is crucial for automatic individual cow welfare measurement and naturally becomes a prerequisite for autonomous livestock farming systems. The deformable body posture and irregular movement of cows under complex farming environments make tracking of individual animals in a herd very challenging. To tackle the above challenge, a deep … [Read more...] about Vision-Based Cow Tracking and Feeding Monitoring for Autonomous Livestock Farming: The YOLOv5s-CA+DeepSORT-Vision Transformer
