Development and implementation of advanced algorithms for data fusion and mapping in underwater[]

Organisation/Company: Politecnico di Bari Research Field: Information science Engineering Researcher Profile: Recognised Researcher (R2), Leading Researcher (R4), First Stage Researcher (R1), Established Researcher (R3) Country: Italy Application Deadline: 31 Jan 2025 - 23:59 (UTC) Type of Contract: To be defined Job Status: Not Applicable Is the job funded through the EU Research Framework Programme? Not funded by a EU programme Is the Job related to staff position within a Research Infrastructure? No Offer Description The proposed research activity aims to investigate the use of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and generative neural networks (GANs) for image enhancement in low-visibility conditions, integration with graph neural networks (GNNs) for accurate and dynamic mapping, and fusion with data from sonar for the realisation of new SLAM (Simultaneous Navigation and Mapping) algorithms for the navigation of a remotely guided submarine robot under development at the Robotics Laboratory of the Department of Electrical and Information Engineering at the Polytechnic University of Bari. The activity is planned to be developed in two successive phases: the first phase involves developing and validating the algorithms in a simulation environment based on ROS and/or Matlab/Simulink, and the subsequent phase consists of implementing the algorithms on the real ROUV. Assessment: Assessment on the basis of academic qualifications and an oral examination. Eligibility of fellows: Country/ies of residence: OTHER Nationality/ies: Not specified J-18808-Ljbffr
