| contents | This work introduces a Strategic Pseudo-Goal Perturbation (SPGP) technique, a novel approach to resolve deadlock situations in multi-agent navigation scenarios. Leveraging the robust framework of Safety Barrier Certificates, our method integrates a strategic perturbation mechanism that guides agents through social mini-games where deadlock and collision occur frequently. The method adopts a strategic calculation process where agents, upon encountering a deadlock select a pseudo goal within a predefined radius around the current position to resolve the deadlock among agents. The calculation is based on controlled strategic algorithm, ensuring that deviation towards pseudo-goal is both purposeful and effective in resolution of deadlock. Once the agent reaches the pseudo goal, it resumes the path towards the original goal, thereby enhancing navigational efficiency and safety. Experimental results demonstrates SPGP's efficacy in reducing deadlock instances and improving overall system throughput in variety of multi-agent navigation scenarios. |
