Coordination adaptative de systèmes robotiques et systèmes connectés hétérogènes pour les transitions agroécologiques // Adaptive Coordination of Heterogeneous Robotic and Connected Systems for Agroecological Transitions

Cette thèse vise à développer des écosystèmes cyber-physiques intelligents capables d'adapter dynamiquement leurs stratégies de perception, de mobilité et d'intervention aux contraintes environnementales, climatiques et opérationnelles des systèmes agroécologiques. Les travaux porteront sur la coordination adaptative de robots hétérogènes, de capteurs connectés et d'infrastructures edge computing, ainsi que sur la modélisation multi-échelle des interactions entre dynamiques robotiques, agricoles et écologiques. Les données et comportements autonomes seront intégrés dans des cadres de simulation multi-agents et des jumeaux numériques basés sur la plateforme MAELIA afin d'évaluer les trajectoires de transition agroécologique et la résilience des systèmes autonomes en conditions non nominales.

This PhD aims to develop intelligent cyber-physical ecosystems capable of dynamically adapting sensing, mobility, and intervention strategies to environmental, climatic, and operational constraints in agroecological systems. The research will focus on adaptive coordination of heterogeneous robots, connected sensors, and edge-computing infrastructures, as well as multi-scale modeling of interactions between robotic, agricultural, and ecological dynamics. Robotic data and autonomous behaviors will be integrated into multi-agent simulation frameworks and digital twins based on MAELIA to evaluate agroecological transition scenarios and the resilience of autonomous systems under non-nominal conditions.
