Improving the energy efficiency of autonomous underwater vehicles by learning to model disturbances [PDF]
Energy efficiency is one of the main challenges for long-term autonomy of AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles). We propose a novel approach for improving the energy efficiency of AUV controllers based on the ability to learn which external disturbances ...

ABSTRACT Collaborative operation of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) can effectively achieve scientific goals that are hard to achieve by independently operated vehicles. Some science payloads are large, expensive, and need to be installed in the vehicle's nose cone. A vehicle can only carry one such payload.
