Improving the energy efficiency of autonomous underwater vehicles by learning to model disturbances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...
