Deep-sea exploration increasingly relies on Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) to enable persistent, wide-area surveying in harsh and uncertain environments. In practice, however, deployments are constrained by tight energy budgets and bandwidth-limited, intermittent acoustic links, which complicate mission-level coordination. Moreover, many existing systems treat perception and control as loosely coupled modules, often res...

The development of robust autonomous maritime systems is fundamentally constrained by the “data silo” problem, where valuable operational data from disparate fleets remain isolated due to privacy concerns, severely limiting the scalability of general-purpose navigation intelligence. To address this barrier, we propose a novel Federated Meta-Transfer Learning (FMTL) framework that enables collaborative evolution of unmanned sur...

Coordinating Multi-Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) swarms in complex, adversarial maritime environments is a significant challenge, as existing multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) methods often fail to capture intricate spatiotemporal dependencies, leading to suboptimal policies. To address this, we propose Adv-TransAC, a novel Spatio-Temporal Meta-Reinforcement Learning framework. Its core innovation is a hybrid GAT-tran...
