Optimized Human-Robot Co-Dispatch Planning for Petro-Site Surveillance under Varying Criticalities

ArXi:2602.07924v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Securing petroleum infrastructure requires balancing autonomous system efficiency with human judgment for threat escalation, a challenge unaddressed by classical facility location models assuming homogeneous resources. This paper formulates the Human-Robot Co-Dispatch Facility Location Problem (HRCD-FLP), a capacitated facility location variant incorporating tiered infrastructure criticality, human-robot supervision ratio constraints, and minimum utilization requirements.
