Scope
The ROSENET 2024 – 8th EAI International Conference on Robotic Sensor Networks is dedicated to scientific achievements in field of Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision, Multimedia and Robotics.
WORKSHOP: Marine Robotics
Autonomy at sea lags behind advancements in land or air. The primary reason for this is the chaotic nature of the oceans, the unknowns of the underwater world, and physical phenomena that are only special to water such as waves and cavitation.
Ship hydrodynamicists try to tackle these problems and pave the way for naval robots, with ocean-going, ships – being the largest and most complex – attracting the most attention. Recent advances in decision making algorithms, collision avoidance systems, and ship digital twins have fueled discussions about the arrival of the first autonomous ship. However, autonomous shipping demands not only technical innovation but also significant progress in regulations and policies. While regulatory matters are left to policymakers, this workshop focuses on the technical aspects of marine robotics, with special emphasis on
– the guidance, navigation, and control of maritime vehicles,
– ship digital twins,
– collision avoidance algorithms,
– dynamic positioning systems,
– ship motion simulations, and
– utilization of AI/ML into ship motion control.

Paper Submission
Papers should be submitted through EAI ‘Confy+‘ system, and have to comply with the Springer format (see Author’s kit section below).
– Regular papers should be up to 12-15+ pages in length. – Springer
– Short papers should be 6-11 pages in length.
All conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process prior to the final decision and publication. This process is facilitated by experts in the Technical Program Committee during a dedicated conference period. Standard peer review is enhanced by EAI Community Review which allows EAI members to bid to review specific papers. All review assignments are ultimately decided by the responsible Technical Program Committee Members while the Technical Program Committee Chair is responsible for the final acceptance selection. You can learn more about Community Review here.
