On-Line Identification of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles through Global Derivative-Free Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We describe the design and implementation of an on-line identification scheme for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs). The proposed method estimates the dynamic parameters of the vehicle based on a global derivative-free optimization algorithm.
