Abstract
To address multi-UAV task allocation and dynamic obstacle avoidance in post-disaster scenarios, this paper proposes a hierarchical GOAPF-MARL (Goal-Oriented Artificial Potential Field Guided Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning) framework. In the perception layer, a task model is built to couple casualty level and disaster scale, forming a unified task weight W and enabling more accurate demand representation under varying conditions. For upper-layer allocation, an improved SADCK-Medoid method is used with the Balanced Residual Capacity (BRC) metric to enable nonuniform UAV deployment across five rescue regions. In the execution layer, a Goal-Oriented Artificial Potential Field (GOAPF) is embedded into multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), improving navigation around buildings, debris, and expanding fire zones while enhancing coordination and decision stability in complex scenes. Simulation results demonstrate improved efficiency and robustness compared with baseline methods under both ideal and challenging settings.
Cooperative navigation of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in disaster search-and-rescue scenarios is challenging due to dense obstacles, partial observability, and strong inter-agent coupling, which often result in path conflicts, collision risks, and limited policy generalization. To address these challenges,...

In complex scenarios such as emergency rescue, power inspection, and battlefield reconnaissance, multi-UAV collaborative task allocation is the core technology for improving task execution efficiency and guaranteeing task reliability. However, the multi-source uncertainty in real scenes severely limits the adaptability...
Efficient relief supply delivery within the golden 72 hours after a disaster is critical to reducing casualties. For medium-to-large unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), pre-flight preparation—including payload mounting, center-of-gravity confirmation, flight route distribution, and link/airspace checks—is abstracted as re...
