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: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.
