A novel diverse domain (DCT-SVD & DWT-SVD) watermarking scheme is proposed in this paper. Here, the watermark is embedded simultaneously onto the two domains. It is shown that an audio signal watermarked using this scheme has better…
This paper investigates underwater cooperative target detection using autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), with a focus on the critical trade-off between cooperation efficiency and communication covertness. To tackle this challenge, we…
Landing an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) on a ground marker is an open problem despite the effort of the research community. Previous attempts mostly focused on the analysis of hand-crafted geometric features and the use of external sensors…
Navigating autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in unknown environments is significantly challenging due to poor visibility, weak signal transmission, and dynamic water currents. These factors pose challenges in accurate global…
Using autonomous underwater vehicles, or AUVs, has completely changed how we gather data from the ocean floor. AUV innovation has advanced significantly, especially in the analysis of images, due to the increasing need for accurate and…
Modern vehicles are equipped with various driver-assistance systems, including automatic lane keeping, which prevents unintended lane departures. Traditional lane detection methods incorporate handcrafted or deep learning-based features…
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are underwater robotic platforms used in a variety of applications. An AUV's navigation solution relies heavily on the fusion of inertial sensors and Doppler velocity logs (DVL), where the latter…
Owing to refraction, absorption, and scattering of light by suspended particles in water, raw underwater images suffer from low contrast, blurred details, and color distortion. These characteristics can significantly interfere with the…
Direct communication between humans and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) is a relatively underexplored area in human-robot interaction (HRI) research, although many tasks (\eg surveillance, inspection, and search-and-rescue) require…
In the field of deep-sea exploration, sonar is presently the only efficient long-distance sensing device. The complicated underwater environment, such as noise interference, low target intensity or background dynamics, has brought many…
In recent years, Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV) have been extensively deployed for maritime applications. However, USV has a limited detection range with sensor installed at the same elevation with the targets. In this research, we propose…
Autonomous navigation has become an increasingly popular machine learning application. Recent advances in deep learning have also resulted in great improvements to autonomous navigation. However, prior outdoor autonomous navigation depends…
In this paper, we consider the problem of caging and eventual capture of an underwater entity using multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) in a 3D water volume We solve this problem both with and without taking bathymetry into…
Visual localization is one of the most important components for robotics and autonomous driving. Recently, inspiring results have been shown with CNN-based methods which provide a direct formulation to end-to-end regress 6-DoF absolute…
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) demand robust spatial perception capabilities, including Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), to support both remote and autonomous tasks. Vision-based…
Implementing fully automatic unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) monitoring water quality is challenging since effectively collecting environmental data while keeping the platform stable and environmental-friendly is hard to approach. To…
The ability to navigate, search, and monitor dynamic marine environments such as ports, deltas, tributaries, and rivers presents several challenges to both human operated and autonomously operated surface vehicles. Human data collection and…
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) have been standing out due to the wide range of applications in which they can be used autonomously. However, they need intelligent systems capable of providing a greater understanding of what they perceive to…
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) play an essential role in modern ocean exploration, and their speed control systems are fundamental to their efficient operation. Like many other robotic systems, AUVs exhibit multivariable nonlinear…
In recent years, autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) swarms are gradually becoming popular and have been widely promoted in ocean exploration or underwater tracking, etc. In this paper, we propose a multi-AUV cooperative underwater…
