| Summary: | In this paper, we present an online obstacle avoidance planning method for unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) based on clockwork recurrent neural network (CW-RNN) and long short-term memory (LSTM), respectively. In essence, UUV online obstacle avoidance planning is a spatiotemporal sequence planning problem with the spatiotemporal data sequence of sensors as input and control instruction to motion controller of UUV as output. And recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have proven to give state-of-the-art performance on many sequence labeling and sequence prediction tasks. In order to train the networks, a UUV obstacle avoidance dataset is generated and an offline training and testing is adopted in this paper. Finally, the proposed two types of RNN based online obstacle avoidance planners are compared in path cost, obstacle avoidance planning success rate, training time, time-consumption, learning, and generalization, respectively. And the good performance of the proposed methods is demonstrated with a series of simulation experiments in different environments. |
