A Novel Tracking Controller for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles with Thruster Fault Accommodation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, for the over-actuated Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) system, a novel tracking controller with thruster fault accommodation is proposed. Firstly, a cascaded control method is proposed for AUV robust tracking control. Then, we deal with the tracking control problem when one or more thrusters are completely or partly malfunctioning. Different control strategies are used to reallocate the thruster forces. For the cases that thrusters are partly malfunctioning, a weighted pseudo-inverse is firstly used to generate the normalised thruster forces. When the normalised thruster forces are out of maximum limits, the Quantum-behaviour Particle Swarm Optimisation (QPSO) is used for the restricted usage of the faulty thruster and to find the solution of the control reallocation problem within the limits. Compared with the weighted pseudo-inverse method, the QPSO algorithm does not need truncation or scaling to ensure the feasibility of the solution due to its particle search in the feasible solution space. The proposed controller is implemented in order to evaluate its performance in different faulty situations and its efficiency is demonstrated through simulation results.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
