Acoustic positioning and tracking in Portsmouth Harbour, New Hampshire [PDF]
, 2007 Portsmouth Harbor, New Hampshire, is frequently used as a testing area for multibeam and sidescan sonars, and is the location of numerous ground-truthing studies. Having the ability to accurately position underwater sensors is an important aspect of this

Evolving Indoor Navigational Strategies Using Gated Recurrent Units In NEAT [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) algorithms are expensive to run on smaller robotic platforms such as Micro-Aerial Vehicles. Bug algorithms are an alternative that use relatively little processing power, and avoid high memory consumption by not building an explicit map of the environment.

Visuospatial navigation without distance, prediction, integration, or maps [PDF]
arXivNavigation is controlled by at least two partially dissociable, concurrently developed systems in the brain. The cognitive map informs an organism of its location and bearing, updated by distance-based prediction and vestibular integration. Response-based systems, on the other hand, directly evaluate movement decisions from immediate percepts.

‘Fixed-axis’ magnetic orientation by an amphibian: non-shoreward-directed compass orientation, misdirected homing or positioning a magnetite-based map detector in a consistent alignment relative to the magnetic field? [PDF]
, 2002 Experiments were carried out to investigate the earlier prediction that prolonged exposure to long-wavelength (>500 nm) light would eliminate homing orientation by male Eastern red-spotted newts Notophthalmus viridescens.

Robot Navigation using Reinforcement Learning and Slow Feature Analysis [PDF]
arXiv, 2012 The application of reinforcement learning algorithms onto real life problems always bears the challenge of filtering the environmental state out of raw sensor readings. While most approaches use heuristics, biology suggests that there must exist an unsupervised method to construct such filters automatically.
