Sim-to-Real Transfer of Adaptive Control Parameters for AUV Stabilization under Current Disturbance

no code implementations17 Oct 2023 Thomas Chaffre, Jonathan Wheare, Andrew Lammas, Paulo Santos, Gilles Le Chenadec, Karl Sammut, Benoit Clement

Learning-based adaptive control methods hold the premise of enabling autonomous agents to reduce the effect of process variations with minimal human intervention.

An Investigation of Preprocessing Filters and Deep Learning Methods for Vessel Type Classification With Underwater Acoustic Data

1 code implementation IEEE Access 2022 Lucas Cesar Ferreira Domingos, Paulo E. Santos, Phillip S. M. Skelton, Russell S. A. Brinkworth, Karl Sammut

However, high accuracies of 94. 95% were achieved using CQT as the preprocessing filter for a ResNet-based convolutional neural network, providing a trade-off between model complexity and accuracy; a result that is more than 10% higher than previously reported approaches.

Response Component Analysis for Sea State Estimation Using Artificial Neural Networks and Vessel Response Spectral Data

no code implementations5 May 2022 Nathan K. Long, Daniel Sgarioto, Matthew Garratt, Karl Sammut

The use of the `ship as a wave buoy analogy' (SAWB) provides a novel means to estimate sea states, where relationships are established between causal wave properties and vessel motion response information.

A survey of underwater acoustic data classification methods using deep learning for shoreline surveillance

no code implementations Sensors 2022 Lucas Cesar Ferreira Domingos, Paulo E Santos, Phillip S. M. Skelton, Russell S. A. Brinkworth, Karl Sammut

This paper presents a comprehensive overview of current deep-learning methods for automatic object classification of underwater sonar data for shoreline surveillance, concentrating mostly on the classification of vessels from passive sonar data and the identification of objects of interest from active sonar (such as minelike objects, human figures or debris of wrecked ships).

Learning-based vs Model-free Adaptive Control of a MAV under Wind Gust

no code implementations29 Jan 2021 Thomas Chaffre, Julien Moras, Adrien Chan-Hon-Tong, Julien Marzat, Karl Sammut, Gilles Le Chenadec, Benoit Clement

We compare it, in realistic simulations, to a model-free controller that uses the same deep reinforcement learning framework for the control of a micro aerial vehicle under wind gust.

Toward Efficient Task Assignment and Motion Planning for Large Scale Underwater Mission

no code implementations17 Apr 2016 Somaiyeh Mahmoud. Zadeh, David MW Powers, Karl Sammut, Amirmehdi Yazdani

An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) needs to acquire a certain degree of autonomy for any particular underwater mission to fulfill the mission objectives successfully and ensure its safety in all stages of the mission in a large scale operating filed.
