Cooperative Marine Operations via Ad Hoc Teams

While research in ad hoc teamwork has great potential for solving real-world robotic applications, most developments so far have been focusing on environments with simple dynamics. In this article, we discuss how the problem of ad hoc teamwork can be of special interest for marine robotics and how it can aid marine operations. Particularly, we present a set of challenges that need to be addressed for achieving ad hoc teamwork in underwater environments and we discuss possible solutions based on current state-of-the-art developments in the ad hoc teamwork literature.
