Subjective machines: Probabilistic risk assessment based on deep learning of soft information

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 516-529, March 2023., 2023
Abstract For several years machine learning methods have been proposed for risk classification. While machine learning methods have also been used for failure diagnosis and condition monitoring, to the best of our knowledge, these methods have not been used for probabilistic risk assessment. Probabilistic risk assessment is a subjective process.

Trajectory tracking for underactuated surface vessels with time delays and unknown control directions

open access: yesIET Control Theory &Applications, Volume 16, Issue 6, Page 587-599, April 2022., 2022
Abstract The problem of trajectory tracking control for underactuated surface vessels with time‐delays, model uncertainty and unknown control directions has been considered in this paper. Firstly, an integration time delayed sliding mode controller is proposed, which decomposes the underactuated non‐linear system into a cascading system consisting of a

An Embedded Linear Model Three‐Dimensional Fuzzy PID Control System for a Bionic AUV under Wave Disturbance

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
This study provides a new embedded linear model (ELM) three‐dimensional fuzzy PID control method for a bionic autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), which is disturbed by ocean waves. The uncertainty of the ocean waves will make it difficult for the AUV to achieve good sailing quality, especially near the sea surface.

Decoupled Planes’ Non-Singular Adaptive Integral Terminal Sliding Mode Trajectory Tracking Control for X-Rudder AUVs under Time-Varying Unknown Disturbances

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
This paper analyzes the trajectory tracking problem in decoupled planes for X-rudder AUVs under time-varying, unknown environmental interferences. The proposed scheme consists of the kinematic control law based on the compound line-of-sight guidance law and the dynamic control law based on a non-singular adaptive integral terminal sliding mode control (

Composite Curve Path following an Underactuated AUV

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
This paper addresses the problem of composite curve path following for an underactuated autonomous underwater vehicle by utilizing an adaptive integral line‐of‐sight (AILOS) guidance and nonlinear iterative sliding mode (NISM) controller. First, the composite curve path is parametrized by a common scalar variable in a continuous way.

Deep Reinforcement Learning for Vectored Thruster Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Control

open access: yesComplexity, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are widely used to accomplish various missions in the complex marine environment; the design of a control system for AUVs is particularly difficult due to the high nonlinearity, variations in hydrodynamic coefficients, and external force from ocean currents.

A Staged Finite‐Time Control Strategy for Formation of Underactuated Unmanned Surface Vehicles

open access: yesComplexity, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
The formation control issue for a group of underactuated unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) is discussed in the paper, and a staged finite‐time control strategy for the USVs is proposed. Firstly, we try to steer each USV to its own starting point in the formation for a limited time, under the initial condition that each of these vehicles is parked at ...
