The recent years have witnessed increased development of small, autonomous fixed-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). In order to unlock widespread applicability of these platforms, they need to be capable of operating under a variety of…

We investigate the autonomous navigation of a mobile robot in the presence of other moving vehicles under time-varying uncertain environmental disturbances. We first predict the future state distributions of other vehicles to account for…

At shipping ports, some repetitive maneuvering tasks such as entering/leaving port, transporting goods inside it or just making surveillance activities, can be efficiently and quickly carried out by a domestic pilot according to his…

Tracking multiple moving objects in real-time in a dynamic threat environment is an important element in national security and surveillance system. It helps pinpoint and distinguish potential candidates posing threats from other normal…

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become increasingly prevalent in various domains, ranging from military operations to civilian applications. However, the proliferation of UAVs has also given rise to concerns regarding their potential…

Navigating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) through cluttered and dynamic environments remains a significant challenge, particularly when dealing with fast-moving or sudden-appearing obstacles. This paper introduces a complete LiDAR-based…

In recent years, consumer Unmanned Aerial Vehicles have become very popular, everyone can buy and fly a drone without previous experience, which raises concern in regards to regulations and public safety. In this paper, we present a novel…

Localization is one of the most important technologies needed to use Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in actual fields. Currently, most UAVs use GNSS to estimate their position. Recently, there have been attacks that target the weaknesses of…

In this paper, we propose an autonomous UAV path planning framework using deep reinforcement learning approach. The objective is to employ a self-trained UAV as a flying mobile unit to reach spatially distributed moving or static targets in…

This paper investigates the problem of controlling an autonomous agent to simultaneously localize and circumnavigate an unknown stationary target using bearing-only measurements (without explicit differentiation). To improve the convergence…

Acquiring data to train deep learning-based object detectors on Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is expensive, time-consuming and may even be prohibited by law in specific environments. On the other hand, synthetic data is fast and cheap to…

This paper proposes a systematic solution that uses an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to aggressively and safely track an agile target. The solution properly handles the challenging situations where the intent of the target and the dense…

This study presents a new methodology for learning-based motion planning for autonomous exploration using aerial robots. Through the reinforcement learning method of learning through trial and error, the action policy is derived that can…

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…

This paper presents the design, development, and experimental validation of MARVEL, an autonomous unmanned surface vehicle built for real-world testing of sensor fusion-based navigation algorithms in GNSS-denied environments. MARVEL was…

Navigation and positioning systems dependent on both the operating environment and the behaviour of the host vehicle or user. The environment determines the type and quality of radio signals available for positioning and the behaviour can…

Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are valuable for ocean exploration due to their flexibility and ability to carry communication and detection units. Nevertheless, AUVs alone often face challenges in harsh and extreme sea conditions.…

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 paper, we construct an air-sea collaborative system framework based on the Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) techniques, where the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) jointly inspect targets of…

This paper addresses the challenge of active perception within autonomous navigation in complex, unknown environments. Revisiting the foundational principles of active perception, we introduce an end-to-end reinforcement learning framework…
