1. A method, comprising:
obtaining a spatio-temporal representation of sensor measurements, from a plurality of mobile sensors, wherein the spatio-temporal representation comprises a plurality of layers each corresponding to a different point in time, wherein a given layer comprises a plurality of positions, and wherein each position in the given layer of the spatio-temporal representation corresponds to a possible location for at least one of the plurality of mobile sensors in an environment;
applying the spatio-temporal representation to an environment state prediction model that generates a prediction of at least one future sensor measurement value for a plurality of positions in the spatio-temporal representation;
applying the predictions of the at least one future sensor measurement value to a sensor position determination model that determines at least one new position for each of one or more of the plurality of mobile sensors using the predictions; and
initiating a movement of the one or more of the plurality of mobile sensors to the new position;
wherein the method is performed by at least one processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory.
