• Abstract: This survey paper presents a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in the field of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) with a focus on the integration of symbolic representation of environment features. The paper synthesizes research trends in multi-agent systems (MAS) and human-machine teaming, highlighting their applications in both symbolic and sub-symbolic SLAM tasks. The survey emphasizes the evolution and significance of ontological designs and symbolic reasoning in creating sophisticated 2D and 3D maps of various environments. Central to this review is the exploration of different architectural approaches in SLAM, with a particular interest in the functionalities and applications of edge and control agent architectures in MAS settings. This study acknowledges the growing demand for enhanced human-machine collaboration in mapping tasks and examines how these collaborative efforts improve the accuracy and efficiency of environmental mapping

  We introduce AriGraph, a method wherein the agent constructs a memory graph that integrates semantic and episodic memories while exploring the environment. This graph structure facilitates efficient associative retrieval of interconnected concepts, relevant to the agent's current state and goals. We demonstrate that our Ariadne LLM agent, equipped with this proposed memory architecture augmented with planning and decision-making, effectively handles complex tasks on a zero-shot basis in the TextWorld environment.

• Active Neural Topological Mapping for Multi-Agent Exploration [24.91397816926568]
  Multi-agent cooperative exploration problem requires multiple agents to explore an unseen environment via sensory signals in a limited time. Topological maps are a promising alternative as they consist only of nodes and edges with abstract but essential information. Deep reinforcement learning has shown great potential for learning (near) optimal policies through fast end-to-end inference. We propose Multi-Agent Neural Topological Mapping (MANTM) to improve exploration efficiency and generalization for multi-agent exploration tasks.
