Course details
Computer Vision for Autonomous Boats: This unit focuses on the application of machine learning algorithms to interpret and understand visual data from various sensors, such as cameras and lidar, to enable autonomous boats to navigate and interact with their environment. •
Deep Learning for Anomaly Detection: This unit explores the use of deep learning techniques, including convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and recurrent neural networks (RNNs), to detect anomalies and outliers in data from autonomous boat sensors, improving overall system reliability and safety. •
Machine Learning for Predictive Maintenance: This unit covers the application of machine learning algorithms to predict equipment failures and perform predictive maintenance on autonomous boats, reducing downtime and improving overall efficiency. •
Autonomous Navigation using GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo: This unit focuses on the use of satellite navigation systems to enable autonomous boats to determine their position, velocity, and time, and to navigate through complex environments. •
Sensor Fusion for Autonomous Boats: This unit explores the use of sensor fusion techniques to combine data from multiple sensors, such as GPS, accelerometers, and gyroscopes, to improve the accuracy and reliability of autonomous boat navigation and control. •
Reinforcement Learning for Autonomous Decision-Making: This unit covers the application of reinforcement learning techniques to enable autonomous boats to make decisions in complex, dynamic environments, such as navigating through congested waterways or avoiding obstacles. •
Computer Vision for Object Detection and Tracking: This unit focuses on the application of machine learning algorithms to detect and track objects in the environment of an autonomous boat, such as other boats, buoys, or marine life. •
Autonomous Boat Control using Model Predictive Control: This unit explores the use of model predictive control (MPC) techniques to enable autonomous boats to make optimal control decisions in real-time, taking into account factors such as speed, direction, and obstacle avoidance. •
Machine Learning for Human-Machine Interface: This unit covers the application of machine learning algorithms to improve the human-machine interface of autonomous boats, enabling more intuitive and natural interaction between humans and the boat. •
Autonomous Boat Security using Machine Learning: This unit focuses on the use of machine learning techniques to detect and prevent security threats, such as piracy or terrorism, to autonomous boats and their cargo.
