About
Thayanne F. Da Silva is a researcher in multi-robot systems and autonomous surveillance, with a focus on cooperative observation in complex environments. Her work addresses the challenge of monitoring multiple moving targets using teams of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), extending classical problems like Cooperative Multi-Robot Observation of Multiple Moving Targets (CMOMMT) from 2D to realistic 3D urban traffic settings. In her most-cited paper, "Cooperative Observation of Malicious Targets in a 3D Urban Traffic Environment Using UAVs" (2021), she introduces novel strategies for deploying observer robots to minimize the total time targets remain unobserved under limited sensor range constraints. This contribution is critical for applications in security, traffic monitoring, and autonomous surveillance. Though her citation count is still growing, her work represents an important step toward scalable, real-world multi-robot coordination. Da Silva’s research is particularly valuable for students and engineers interested in the intersection of robotics, artificial intelligence, and smart city infrastructure, offering practical insights into the challenges of perception, cooperation, and dynamic target tracking in cluttered environments.
