Optimal confrontation position selecting games model and its application to one-on-one air combat

In the air combat process,confrontation position is the critical factor to determine the confrontation situation,attack effect and escape probability of UAVs.Therefore,selecting the optimal confrontation position becomes the primary goal of maneuver decision-making.By taking the position as the UAV’s maneuver strategy,this paper constructs the optimal confrontation position selecting games(OCPSGs)model.In the OCPSGs model,the payoff function of each UAV is defined by the difference between the comprehensive advantages of both sides,and the strategy space of each UAV at every step is defined by its accessible space determined by the maneuverability.Then we design the limit approximation of mixed strategy Nash equilibrium(LAMSNQ)algorithm,which provides a method to determine the optimal probability distribution of positions in the strategy space.In the simulation phase,we assume the motions on three directions are independent and the strategy space is a cuboid to simplify the model.Several simulations are performed to verify the feasibility,effectiveness and stability of the algorithm.

Biological control of a predator-prey system through provision of an infected predator

Epidemic transmission has a substantial effect on the dynamics and stability of the predator-prey system, in which the transmission rate plays an important role. The probabilistic cellular automaton (PCA) approach is used to investigate the spatiotemporal dynamics of a predator-prey system with the infected predator. Remarkably, it is impossible to achieve a coexistence state of prey, susceptible predators, and infected predators in a spatial population. This is different from the analysis from a non-spatial population with the mean-field approximation, where Hopf bifurcation arises and the interior equilibrium becomes unstable, and a periodic solution appears with the increasing in feet i on rate. The results show that the introduction of the infected predator with a high transmission rate is beneficial for the persistence of the prey population in space. However, a low transmission rate will promote the coexistence state of the prey and the susceptible predator populations. In summary, it is possible to develop management strategies to manipulate the transmission rate of the infected predator for the benefit of biological control.

Research on self-adaptive decision-making mechanism for competition strategies in robot soccer

In the robot soccer competition platform, the cur- rent confrontation decision-making system suffers from dif- ficulties in optimization and adaptability. Therefore, we pro- pose a new self-adaptive decision-making （SADM） strategy. SADM compensates for the restrictions of robot physical movement control by updating the task assignment and role assignment module using situation assessment techniques. It designs a self-adaptive role assignment model that assists the soccer robot in adapting to competition situations similar to how humans adapt in real time. Moreover, it also builds an accurate motion model for the robot in order to improve the competition ability of individual robot soccer. Experimental results show that SADM can adapt quickly and positively to new competition situations and has excellent performance in actual competition.
