From: Intrinsic and environmental factors modulating autonomous robotic search under high uncertainty
Modulation of Lévy travel length probability by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Each represented trace is the complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) of the travel lengths for each strategy/parameter combination. We show its modulation by the exponent parameter \(\alpha\) (blue, orange and green traces) and under different factors: intrinsic (battery truncated –red– and drift bound –brown–) and extrinsic (environment bound, a basic model that truncates trajectories at \(10^2\) a.u. to represent search area diameter limit –purple trace–). Each CCDF was computed numerically with the models described in “Robot simulation models” section. The dashed rectangle indicates the region employed for the drift and battery analyses discussed in Fig. 3.
