arXiv:2607. 22667v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper presents an information-gain-guided reinforcement-learning sensor-selection framework for single-vessel tracking in heterogeneous maritime sensor networks.
arXiv:2604. 12645v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Although autonomous underwater vehicles promise the capability of marine ecosystem monitoring, their deployment is fundamentally limited by the difficulty of controlling vehicles under highly uncertain and non-stationary underwater dynamics.
arXiv:2603. 28385v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Maritime surveillance missions, such as search and rescue and environmental monitoring, rely on the efficient allocation of sensing assets over vast and geometrically complex areas.
arXiv:2606. 27609v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Physical or operational constraints often impose communications limitations on autonomous agents.
arXiv:2608. 14332v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning is promising for autonomous urban driving, but long-horizon goal-directed navigation asks a policy to acquire several competing behaviors at once--reaching a distant goal, tracking a route, avoiding obstacles, obeying signals--and a fixed objective gives no order in which to learn them.
arXiv:2608. 11597v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As smart port infrastructures increasingly rely on autonomous maritime devices enabled by the Internet of Things (IoT), ensuring reliable onboard navigation intelligence has become a critical challenge for safe and scalable operations in congested waterways.
arXiv:2608. 12436v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multi-AUV ad-hoc network-based target tracking requires networked autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to cooperatively track maneuvering targets under constrained acoustic communication, dynamic topology, and uncertain ocean disturbances.
arXiv:2608. 12995v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Heterogeneous USV cooperative pursuit in constrained port waterways requires evader interception under navigation, traffic, and role constraints.
arXiv:2603. 29426v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) provides a promising solution for cooperative target tracking in networks of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs).
In underwater covert cooperative missions, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) often cannot rely on active sonar to continuously obtain complete information, since active sensing and frequent communications increase the risk of exposure. As a result, AUVs primarily rely on passive observation, an approach that yields incomplete local perception and limited task efficiency.
arXiv:2608. 06105v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI)-assisted navigation can help Arctic shipping adapt to rapidly changing sea-ice conditions, but reliable deployment requires reward models that are interpretable and robust to changing environments.
Physical or operational constraints often impose communications limitations on autonomous agents. Such limitations complicate monitoring or multiagent coordination.
arXiv:2606. 08513v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) traditionally rely on complex, heavily engineered pipelines for perception, path planning, and motion control.
