Purpose–The main purpose of this paper is to investigate two key elements of localization
and mapping of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV), ie to overview various sensors and …

We present a new vision-based localization system applied to an autonomous underwater
vehicle (AUV) with limited sensing and computation capabilities. The traditional EKF-SLAM …

This work presents a six degrees of freedom probabilistic scan matching method for
registration of 3D underwater sonar scans. Unlike previous works, where local submaps are …

Underwater scanning and surveying (USS) play a significant role in tactical surveillance,
offshore explorations, climate change monitoring, and oceanography research. USS are …

This paper presents a novel approach to localize an underwater mobile robot based on scan
matching using a Mechanically Scanned Imaging Sonar (MSIS). When used to perform scan …

This paper presents an approach to perform Simultaneous Localization and Mapping
(SLAM) in underwater environments using a Mechanically Scanned Imaging Sonar (MSIS) …

This paper proposes a novel approach to perform underwater Simultaneous Localization
and Mapping (SLAM) using a Mechanically Scanned Imaging Sonar (MSIS). This approach …

This letter presents the Progressive Hierarchical Image Encoding (PHIE) approach aimed at
progressively encoding underwater images and, thus, helping in transmitting them in …

This paper proposes a pose-based GraphSLAM algorithm for robotic fish equipped with a
Mechanical Scanning Sonar (MSS) that has a low frequency of range readings. The main …

The use of acoustic methods to detect targets in the ocean and lakes is of great significance
in both military and civilian fields. With the improvement of science and technology, new …
