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:2508. 06659v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) agents often struggle to generalize to new tasks and contexts without updating their parameters, mainly because their learned representations and policies are overfit to the specifics of their training environments.
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.
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).
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: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:2607. 08647v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As autonomous agents are increasingly deployed across diverse operational contexts, aligning their behavior with human intent demands reward functions that remain robust to such changes rather than overfitting to any single environment.
arXiv:2606. 05021v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We investigate multi-agent deep reinforcement learning and propose two enhancements to the Multi-Agent Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (MADDPG) algorithm.
arXiv:2607. 02037v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous surface vehicles vary widely in hydrodynamic and actuation characteristics, yet most controllers are designed for single-platform deployment.
arXiv:2606. 25680v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Underwater vehicles operate from a fixed onboard energy budget that propulsion rapidly depletes, so a controller that completes its task while drawing less thruster power directly extends mission range and endurance.
arXiv:2505. 08222v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autonomous vehicles (AVs) offer a cost-effective solution for scientific missions such as underwater tracking.
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: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.
