Abstract
Since Underwater Vehicle-Manipulator Systems(UVMSs) are necessary for ocean exploration in future missions, many studies have been done about UVMS. UVMSs are affected by hydrodynamic force and the exact value of the force cannot be obtained. To solve this problem, control methods using neural networks have been proposed for underwater vehicles. In this paper, we propose an UVMS control method using neural networks. Experimental result shows the effectiveness of the proposed control method.
