Informative path planning for anomaly detection in environment exploration and monitoring by Blanchard, Antoine, Sapsis, Themistoklis

“…We demonstrate superiority of the proposed approach in several applications, including reconstruction of seafloor topography from real-world bathymetry data, as well as tracking of dynamic anomalies. A particularly attractive property of our approach is its ability to overcome adversarial conditions, that is, situations in which prior beliefs about the locations of the extremes are imprecise or erroneous.…”
