Distributed MPC for autonomous ships on inland waterways with collaborative collision avoidance [PDF]
This paper presents a distributed solution for the problem of collaborative collision avoidance for autonomous inland waterway ships. A two-layer collision avoidance framework that considers inland waterway traffic regulations is proposed to increase navigational safety for autonomous ships.

Deep Visual Waterline Detection within Inland Marine Environment [PDF]
Waterline usually plays as an important visual cue for maritime applications. However, the visual complexity of inland waterline presents a significant challenge for the development of highly efficient computer vision algorithms tailored for waterline detection in a complicated inland water environment.

Weiss–Weinstein Bound of Frequency Estimation Error for Very Weak GNSS Signals
Tightness remains the primary goal in all modern estimation bounds. For very weak signals, tightness is enabled by appropriately selecting the prior probability distribution and bound family.
