A machine learning assisted method for rapidly annotating benthic megafauna in large volumes of marine imagery

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent technological advancements have rapidly expanded our capacity for collecting image data in the marine environment, but processing images into meaningful ecological metrics remains a manual, time‐consuming, and biased process. This is particularly challenging with electro‐optical cabled imaging systems which generate images at a rate ...

On Mixed-Initative Planning and Control for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

open access: yes
Supervision and control of Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) has traditionally been focused on an operator determining a priori the sequence of waypoints of a single vehicle for a mission.

Discrete hierarchical supervisory control for autonomous underwater vehicle

open access: yes, 2004
Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) is an unmanned untethered underwater vehicle managed by its control architecture. If we want AUV to undertake a user-specified mission without the presence of human, the control system should have enough machine ...

Autosub6000: results of its engineering trials and first science missions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In September 2007 on RRS Discovery, the Autosub6000 Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) completed its first deep water engineering trials, and less than a year later, fitted with a multibeam bathymetric mapping sonar, carried out its first science ...

A novel approach for in situ benthic habitat characterization

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Habitat heterogeneity is a key driver of temporal and spatial variability of subtidal marine benthic biodiversity. However, this makes it a challenging environment in which to measure and quantify the factors driving biodiversity in a consistent manner.

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

Conceptual Design of a Spherical Underwater Vehicle Equipped with Vertically Rotatable Thruster Units

open access: yes, 2018
This paper addresses a concept of a spherical autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) with vertically rotatable thruster units. Compared to torpedo-type AUVs, the spherical AUV would have precise path following and close inspection abilities with high ...
