This paper presents SubPipe, an underwater dataset for SLAM, object detection, and image segmentation. SubPipe has been recorded using a lightweight autonomous underwater vehicle (LAUV), operated by OceanScan MST, and carrying a sensor suite including two cameras, a side-scan sonar, and an inertial navigation system, among other sensors. The AUV has been deployed in a pipeline inspection environment with a submarine pipe partially covered by sand. The AUV's pose ground truth is estimated from the navigation sensors. The side-scan sonar and RGB images include object detection and segmentation annotations, respectively. State-of-the-art segmentation, object detection, and SLAM methods are benchmarked on SubPipe to demonstrate the dataset's challenges and opportunities for leveraging computer vision algorithms. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first anno-tated underwater dataset providing a real pipeline inspection scenario. The dataset and experiments are publicly avail-able online at https://***/remaro-network/SubPipe-dataset.

We present the results of experiments performed using a team of small autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to determine the location of an isobath. The primary contributions of this work are (1) the development of a novel objective function for level set estimation that utilizes a rigorous assessment of uncertainty, and (2) a description of the practical challenges and corresponding solutions needed to implement our approach in the field using a team of AUVs. We combine path planning techniques and an approach to decentralization from prior work that yields theoretical performance guarantees. Experimentation with a team of AUVs provides empirical evidence that the desirable performance guarantees can be preserved in practice even in the presence of limitations that commonly arise in underwater robotics, including slow and intermittent acoustic communications and limited computational resources. © 2024, CC BY-NC-SA.

Robotic ultrasound (US) systems have shown great potential to make US examinations easier and more accurate. Recently, various machine learning techniques have been proposed to realize automatic US image interpretation for robotic US acquisition tasks. However, obtaining large amounts of real US imaging data for training is usually expensive or even unfeasible in some clinical applications. An alternative is to build a simulator to generate synthetic US data for training, but the differences between simulated and real US images may result in poor model performance. This work presents a Sim2Real framework to efficiently learn robotic US image analysis tasks based only on simulated data for real-world deployment. A style transfer module is proposed based on unsupervised contrastive learning and used as a preprocessing step to convert the real US images into the simulation style. Thereafter, a task-relevant model is designed to combine CNNs with vision transformers to generate the task-dependent prediction with improved generalization ability. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in an image regression task to predict the probe position based on US images in robotic transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Our results show that using only simulated US data and a small amount of unlabelled real data for training, our method can achieve comparable performance to semi-supervised and fully supervised learning methods. Moreover, the effectiveness of our previously proposed CT-based US image simulation method is also indirectly confirmed. Copyright © 2023, The Authors. All rights reserved.

Previous research has revealed differences in personality traits among different genders, age groups, and even cultures. However, existing methods have focused on one-fits-all approaches only and performed personality recognition without taking into consideration the user’s profiles. In this paper, we propose to learn personalised models of self-reported big five personality traits. Our proposed approach automatically learns deep learning architectures for different user profiles using Neural Architecture Search (NAS) for predicting the Big Five personality traits from multimodal behavioural features. We experiment with two different user profiling criteria, namely, gender and age, and compare the results of our approach with the state-of-the-art methods. Overall, our results show that personalised models improve the performance as compared to the generic model. Particularly, gender-based user profiling combined with bimodal features reduces the prediction error by 0.128, achieving the state-of-the-art performance on the UDIVA dataset. © 2022 H. Salam, V.

Direct shooting is an efficient method to solve numerical optimal control. It utilizes the Runge-Kutta scheme to discretize a continuous-time optimal control problem making the problem solvable by nonlinear programming solvers. However, conventional direct shooting raises a contradictory dynamics issue when using an augmented state to handle high-order systems. This paper fills the research gap by considering the direct shooting method for high-order systems. We derive the modified Euler and Runge-Kutta-4 methods to transcribe the system dynamics constraint directly. Additionally, we provide the global error upper bounds of our proposed methods. A set of benchmark optimal control problems shows that our methods provide more accurate solutions than existing approaches. © 2024, CC BY.

We consider the design and generation of spatially partially coherent (SPC) beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) propagating through complex random media. It has been theoretically shown that spatial coherence can be controlled through a prescribed linear superposition of Laguerre-Gaussian (LG) modes. Experimentally the SPC beams are obtained by randomly cycling the phase screens of the coherent modes, with each mode contributing a weight that is proportional to its eigenvalue in the coherent mode decomposition equation. The spectral degree of coherence, ξ, theoretically varies from 0 (fully coherent) to 1 (incoherent). Experimentally, it is suggested that we can reach the highest level of incoherence when the modes are combined where LG mode orders are of equal weights. Preliminary measurements indicate a reduced coherence corresponding to increasing ξ. Our experimental design imposes turbulence on the beam to examine the effects of its spatial partial coherence on the scintillation index (SI). It has been shown that benefits to communication system performance, specifically underwater, can be achieved through the control of spatial coherence properties of laser light propagation. © 2023 SPIE.

Nine-degrees-of-freedom (9-DoF) object pose and size estimation is crucial for enabling augmented reality and robotic manipulation. Category-level methods have received extensive research attention due to their potential for generalization to intra-class unknown objects. However, these methods require manual collection and labeling of large-scale real-world training data. To address this problem, we introduce a diffusion-based paradigm for domain-generalized category-level 9-DoF object pose estimation. Our motivation is to leverage the latent generalization ability of the diffusion model to address the domain generalization challenge in object pose estimation. This entails training the model exclusively on rendered synthetic data to achieve generalization to real-world scenes. We propose an effective diffusion model to redefine 9-DoF object pose estimation from a generative perspective. Our model does not require any 3D shape priors during training or inference. By employing the Denoising Diffusion Implicit Model, we demonstrate that the reverse diffusion process can be executed in as few as 3 steps, achieving near real-time performance. Finally, we design a robotic grasping system comprising both hardware and software components. Through comprehensive experiments on two benchmark datasets and the real-world robotic system, we show that our method achieves state-of-the-art domain generalization performance.

Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) has been considered a key feature of next-generation wireless networks. This paper investigates the joint design of the radar receive filter and dual-functional transmit waveform for the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) ISAC system. While optimizing the mean square error (MSE) of the radar receive spatial response and maximizing the achievable rate at the communication receiver, besides the constraints of full-power radar receiving filter and unimodular transmit sequence, we control the maximum range sidelobe level, which is often overlooked in existing ISAC waveform design literature, for better radar imaging performance. To solve the formulated optimization problem with convex and nonconvex constraints, we propose an inexact augmented Lagrangian method (ALM) algorithm. For each subproblem in the proposed inexact ALM algorithm, we custom-design a block successive upper-bound minimization (BSUM) scheme with closed-form solutions for all blocks of variable to enhance the computational efficiency. Convergence analysis shows that the proposed algorithm is guaranteed to provide a stationary and feasible solution. Extensive simulations are performed to investigate the impact of different system parameters on communication and radar imaging performance. Comparison with the existing works shows the superiority of the proposed algorithm. © 2025, CC BY-NC-SA.
