To realize the potential of autonomous underwater robots that scale up our observational
capacity in the ocean, new techniques are needed. Fleets of autonomous robots could be …

Increasing interest in the acquisition of biotic and abiotic resources from within the deep sea
(eg, fisheries, oil–gas extraction, and mining) urgently imposes the development of novel …

Knowing the displacement capacity and mobility patterns of industrially exploited (ie, fished)
marine resources is key to establishing effective conservation management strategies in …

The deep-ocean carbon cycle is poorly quantified. An abyssal benthic rover was developed
to make long time-series measurements of seafloor processes related to organic carbon …

One of Saturn's largest moons, Enceladus, possesses a vast extraterrestrial ocean (ie, exo-
ocean) that is increasingly becoming the hotspot of future research initiatives dedicated to …

We study the problem of using single or multiple cooperative autonomous vehicles, called
trackers, to localize and pursue an unknown underwater moving target using measurement …

Singe-beacon localization technology can help Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) to
obtain precise positions by deploying only one beacon. It is considered as a promising way …

We address the general problem of multiple target localization and pursuit using
measurements of the ranges from the targets to a set of autonomous pursuing vehicles …

This paper presents a numerically efficient approach to optimally place wireless sensors for
3-dimensional (3D) angle-of-arrival (AOA) target localization. The proposed algorithm …

Underwater localization is one of the main problems that must be addressed in subsea
exploration, where no global positioning system (GPS) is available. In addition to the …
