Project Description / Internship Subject


A robot moves on a grid or topology. At each position, it perceives the multiset of sensing of the tiles or surroundings that it covers. The goal of the project is to design and code an algorithm that labels the grid so that the robot can uniquely determine its location due to the combination of the sensed labels.

The fewer the number of bits used to represent all the required labels for the system or network, the better.

For example, in the following grid, no two 3-by-3 square contains the same multiset of the labels (we use color to illustrate, which however can mean an identification number or a few bits).


We would propose interesting new mathematical models which may spur future scientific research. Interesting engineering application includes 6G wireless IoT systems.

Research methodology to be used:

Several approaches of increasing sophistication can be applied. Greedy algorithm, algorithms improving a coloring of graph by solving local conflicts randomly, graph neural networks (as the problem is reminiscent of, but distinct from, graph coloring), machine learning and deep learning techniques.
