Communication-constrained multi-AUV cooperative SLAM [PDF]

2015 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 2015
Multi-robot deployments have the potential for completing tasks more efficiently. For example, in simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), robots can better localize themselves and the map if they can share measurements of each other (direct encounters) and of commonly observed parts of the map (indirect encounters).

Overview of Research on Transformation of Multi-AUV Formations [PDF]

Complex System Modeling and Simulation, 2021
Because of their wide detection range and rich functions, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are widely used for observing the marine environment, for exploring natural resources, for security and defense purposes, and in many other fields of interest.

An Improved DSA-Based Approach for Multi-AUV Cooperative Search. [PDF]

Comput Intell Neurosci, 2018
Multi-AUV cooperative target search problem in unknown 3D underwater environment is not only a research hot spot but also a challenging task. To complete this task, each autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) needs to move quickly without collision and cooperate with other AUVs to find the target. In this paper, an improved dolphin swarm algorithm- (DSA-)

Multi-AUV sediment plume estimation using Bayesian optimization [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science
Sediment plumes created by dredging or mining activities have an impact on the ecosystem in a much larger area than the mining or dredging area itself. It is therefore important and sometimes mandatory to monitor the developing plume to quantify the impact on the ecosystem including its spatial-temporal evolution.

Multi-AUV Kinematic Task Assignment Based on Self-Organizing Map Neural Network and Dubins Path Generator. [PDF]

Sensors (Basel)
To deal with the task assignment problem of multi-AUV systems under kinematic constraints, which means steering capability constraints for underactuated AUVs or other vehicles likely, an improved task assignment algorithm is proposed combining the Dubins

A multi-AUV cooperative navigation method

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
Abstract Cooperative navigation is one of the key methods for multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to obtain accurate positions when performing tasks underwater. In the realistic state-space model of the multi-AUV cooperative navigation system, where the system noise does not satisfy the additivity, it is necessary to augment ...
