Autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) navigation and localization in underwater
environments is particularly challenging due to the rapid attenuation of Global Positioning …

The underwater path planning problem deals with finding an optimal or sub-optimal route
between an origin point and a termination point in marine environments. The underwater …

To solve the problem of unknown noise covariance matrices inherent in the cooperative
localization of autonomous underwater vehicles, a new adaptive extended Kalman filter is …

This chapter surveys the problem of navigation for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV
s). Navigation is critical for the safety and effectiveness of AUV missions. The unavailability …

Recently, there has been growing interest in developing Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
(AUV) to operate for longer mission durations as well as with higher levels of autonomy. This …

In this paper, a new outlier-robust Student's t based Gaussian approximate filter is proposed
to address the heavy-tailed process and measurement noises induced by the outlier …

This paper reports the formulation and evaluation of a centralized extended Kalman filter
designed for a novel navigation system for underwater vehicles. The navigation system …

In cooperative localization for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), the practical
stochastic noise may be heavy-tailed, and nonstationary distributed because of acoustic …

The ocean covers about two-thirds of the earth and has a great effect on the future existence
of all human beings. About 37% of the world's population lives within 100 km of the ocean …

Multi-robot deployments have the potential for completing tasks more efficiently. For
example, in simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), robots can better localize …
