Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Robotic site preparation has been identified as an integral precursor to human landings on Mars. Many species of social insect carry out the site preparation task when they construct their nests. A site preparation algorithm was developed based on the nest construction behavior of a particular spe cies of ant, Leptothorax albipennis. In this paper, we present a new approach to modeling the tempo ral behavior of a multiple-robot system and apply it to our construction algorithm. In order to validate our model, experiments with multiple physical robots were conducted. Not only did the results of our experiments closely follow the predictions of our model, but the sites prepared by our robots appeared very similar to the nests built by the ants that were our inspiration.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
