AERIS: Offline Policy Improvement for Multi-UAV Integrated Sensing and Communication

AERIS is an offline policy improvement framework for multi-UAV integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) that learns from fixed flight logs using centralized training and decentralized execution. It introduces STAR-CRDT, an offline multi-agent RL algorithm that rectifies local actions and distills trusted improvements into decentralized actors, providing an offline-support policy improvement guarantee. Experiments demonstrate that STAR-CRDT boosts the main ISAC objective return by 29.3% and improves communication sum rate, sensing pass rate, and sensing margin while reducing collision-risk events by 54.2%.

Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning-Based UAV Pathfinding for Obstacle Avoidance in Stochastic Environment

The paper proposes a centralized training with decentralized execution framework for multi‑agent UAV pathfinding in stochastic environments, leveraging multi‑agent reinforcement learning enhanced by model predictive control concepts. Agents communicate only with a centralized planner and use a distance‑weighted mean‑field observation to plan feasible paths, while multi‑step value convergence improves training efficiency. Experiments, including ablation and real‑robot studies, demonstrate the method’s effectiveness and generalization.

Communication-Aware Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for Decentralized Cooperative UAV Deployment

arXiv:2603. 16141v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) swarms are increasingly used as rapidly deployable aerial relays and sensing platforms, yet practical deployments must operate under partial observability and intermittent peer-to-peer connectivity.

Agentic AI Networking for Heterogeneous Unmanned Aerial Systems in Low-Altitude Wireless Networks

The paper introduces a hierarchical hybrid architecture combining large language models (LLMs) and multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) to manage heterogeneous unmanned aerial systems in low‑altitude wireless networks (LAWNs). An outer LLM‑driven loop interprets service requirements and operator intent to reconfigure objectives and resource priorities, while an inner MARL loop executes decentralized policies under the updated game. A logistics‑monitoring case study demonstrates the framework’s ability to coordinate diverse services and adapt to changing conditions without retraining the MARL policies.

AeroWeaver: An Embodied-Agent Harness for Weaving Aerial Skills into Distributed, Adaptive Swarm Execution

AeroWeaver is a new embodied‑agent harness that integrates large language model (LLM) decision making with the executable skills of individual UAVs, enabling distributed, adaptive swarm execution. It connects semantic mission decisions to governed skills, organizes role‑conditioned local agents for coordination, and refines skill selection online using role‑indexed state‑action‑reward experience. Experiments demonstrate that AeroWeaver maintains valid skill execution without a central joint‑action generator and supports reward‑guided, training‑free adaptive learning from accumulated execution experience.
