Autonomous landing systems for Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAV) have been proposed using various combinations of GPS-based, vision, and fiducial tag-based schemes. Landing is a critical activity that a MAV performs and poor resolution of GPS,…

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are becoming standard tools for underwater exploration and seabed mapping in both scientific and industrial applications \cite{graham2022rapid, stenius2022system}. Their capacity to dive untethered…

This paper presents a general framework integrating vision and acoustic sensor data to enhance localization and mapping in highly dynamic and complex underwater environments, with a particular focus on fish farming. The proposed pipeline is…

Driven by applications like Micro Aerial Vehicles (MAVs), driver-less cars, etc, localization solution has become an active research topic in the past decade. In recent years, Ultra Wideband (UWB) emerged as a promising technology because…

Urban environments offer a challenging scenario for autonomous driving. Globally localizing information, such as a GPS signal, can be unreliable due to signal shadowing and multipath errors. Detailed a priori maps of the environment with…

In this work, we present an aided inertial navigation system for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) using an unscented Kalman filter on manifolds (UKF-M). The inertial navigation estimate is aided by a Doppler velocity log (DVL), depth…

Path planning is crucial for the navigation of autonomous vehicles, yet these vehicles face challenges in complex and real-world environments. Although a global view may be provided, it is often outdated, necessitating the reliance of…

An appearance-based robot self-localization problem is considered in the machine learning framework. The appearance space is composed of all possible images, which can be captured by a robot's visual system under all robot localizations.…

Extended Kalman filter (EKF) does not guarantee consistent mean and covariance under linearization, even though it is the main framework for robotic localization. While Lie group improves the modeling of the state space in localization, the…

We consider the problem of estimating an RF-device's location based on observations, such as received signal strength, from a set of transmitters with known locations. We survey the literature on this problem, showing that previous authors…

We address the problem of localizing non-collaborative WiFi devices in a large region. Our main motive is to localize humans by localizing their WiFi devices, e.g. during search-and-rescue operations after a natural disaster. We use an…

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have become indispensable for deep-sea exploration, spanning critical scientific research and commercial applications. The rapid attenuation of electromagnetic waves renders satellite radio signals…

This paper introduces a visual-based localization method for autonomous vehicles (AVs) that operate in the absence of any complicated hardware system but a single camera. Visual localization refers to techniques that aim to find the…

Ensemble methods such as the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) are widely used for data assimilation in large-scale geophysical applications, as for example in numerical weather prediction (NWP). There is a growing interest for physical models…

Extensive use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is expected to raise privacy and security concerns among individuals and communities. In this context, the detection and localization of UAVs will be critical for maintaining safe and secure…

Navigation of a team of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) coordinated by an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) is efficient and reliable for deep ocean exploration. AUVs depart from and return to the USV after collaborative navigation, data…

We present the results of experiments performed using a team of small autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to determine the location of an isobath. The primary contributions of this work are (1) the development of a novel objective…

Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) frameworks for autonomous navigation rely on robust data association to identify loop closures for back-end trajectory optimization. In the case of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) equipped…

This paper reports an investigation into the problem of rapid identification of a channel that crosses a body of water using one or more Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV). A new algorithm called Proposal Based Adaptive Channel Search (PBACS)…

Traditional sea exploration faces significant challenges due to extreme conditions, limited visibility, and high costs, resulting in vast unexplored ocean regions. This paper presents an innovative AI-powered Autonomous Underwater Vehicle…
