| 摘要 |
The present invention describes the use of autonomous devices, which can be arranged in networks, such as neural networks, to better identify, track, and acquire sources of signals present in an environment. The environment may be a physical environment, such as a battlefield, or a more abstract environment, such as a communication network. The devices may be mobile, in the form of vehicles with sensors, or may be information agents, and may also interact with one another, thus allowing for a great deal of flexibility in carrying out a task. In some cases, the devices may be in the form of autonomous vehicles which can collaboratively sense, identify, or classify a number of sources or targets concurrently. The autonomous devices may function as mobile agents or attractors in a network, such as a neural network. The devices may also be aggregated to form a network of networks and provide scalability to a system in which the autonomous devices are operating.
