Summary: This paper focuses on the intelligent event-triggering-based positioning control of networked unmanned marine vehicle (UMV) systems with hybrid attacks. A stochastic switched Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy system model is proposed for the UMV systems subject to DoS and Deception attacks, and an asynchronous advantage actor-critic (A3C) learning-based event-triggering approach is introduced to reduce communication load. The stability of the closed-loop system is analyzed using Lyapunov stability theory and switched system analysis, and the effectiveness of the proposed resilient control strategy is verified through a networked UMV system example.
