24.) These measures enacted by state and local governments in the immediate aftermath of the war sought to deprive newly freed African Americans of their legal rights by forcing Freedmen to obtain proof or residence and employment within six months of liberation, or face high fines and imprisonment?

Carefully read the statement and determine whether it is true (T) or false (F). The high computational demands of distance transform and skeletonization methods render them impractical for large-scale maps, prompting the development of more efficient probabilistic approaches. Among these, the probabilistic roadmap (PRM) method stands out as one of the most widely recognized techniques. This model randomly samples the workspace to address computational limitations effectively.

Large Question. Please refer to the following figure. In real-world applications, deploying multiple robots dynamically to their designated locations as coordinated teams while minimizing the distance cost between robots and their assigned goals is a challenging, NP-hard problem. To address this, we consider a framework for team-based multi-robot task allocation and path planning, designed specifically for robot exploration missions. This approach utilizes an optimization-based distance-minimization model. Tasks are first divided into sub-tasks, considering interdependence and relations among robots. Robots are clustered into teams based on these relationships and the nature of the tasks. Each team of robots, initially enclosed within arbitrary shapes due to their intercorrelations, is approximated and relaxed into circular formations. This approximation simplifies the optimization problem and focuses on minimizing distances both between teams and between individual robots and their goals. The problem is formulated as an optimization task that aims to minimize total traveled distance while maintaining task feasibility. After solving the optimization problem, the teams are deployed to their respective locations. Once teams reach their approximate positions, the individual robot locations within each team are fine-tuned using graph-based methods, ensuring accurate task execution and minimal path overlap. Explain how this multi-robot multi-task allocation system works. Describe this algorithm in pseudo-code form.   [Note, if students use ChatGPT to obtain solution, the entire exam will be zero!] If you are comfortable to draw figures or answer your questions using computer’s app, please draw figures online.  However, it is hard to draw figures and diagrams using apps.  Alternatively, please have enough empty papers ready on your hands in the exam.  If questions require you to draw figures or diagrams, please feel free to draw by hands on your empty papers.  Please immediately scan or take photos of papers with figures or diagrams by cell phone and quickly email me (no more than 15 minutes after your exam).
