Uncrewed Surface Vessel Technological Diffusion Depends on Cross-Sectoral Investment in Open-Ocean Archetypes: A Systematic Review of USV Applications and Drivers

Ruth G. Patterson et al.

Summary: Accessing the world's oceans is crucial for monitoring and managing the maritime domain, but difficulties in reaching remote areas have led to limited coverage. Uncrewed Surface Vessels (USVs) have the potential to overcome these challenges, but they are not yet widely used. By analyzing literature, we found low cost to be a central driver for USV adoption, while compatibility and complexity of the products are major limitations.

Autonomous Surface Vehicle energy-efficient and reward-based path planning using Particle Swarm Optimization and Visibility Graphs

Evan Krell et al.

Summary: Path planning for Autonomous Surface Vehicles in complex shorelines and spatio-temporal environmental forces is a challenging task. Deterministic algorithms provide optimal solutions but are computationally expensive. Metaheuristic algorithms sacrifice optimality for reduced computation but can converge to local optima. This paper proposes using Visibility Graphs (VGs) to initialize the population of a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm, significantly improving its reliability and competitiveness with deterministic algorithms. The concept of opportunistic reward-based planning is also introduced, with VGs used to enhance both reward and efficiency in PSO. The combination of VGs and PSO efficiently plans routes for complex marine path planning problems.
