White- and blue- collar workers' responses towards underground workspaces by Su, Ying, Roberts, Adam Charles, Yap, Hui Shan, Car, Josip, Kwok, Kian Woon, Soh, Chee Kiong, Christopoulos, George I.

“…Modern technologies have enabled the development of high quality work environments in underground spaces (UGS).Yet, the fundamental issue of whether UGS are suitable for people intensive functions, such as office or manual work, is largely not well understood. Here, we examine whether full-time white collar (office [WCW]) and blue collar (mostly manual [BCW]) workers of UGS have different responses to critical organizational variables when compared to similar workers of aboveground spaces (AGS). …”

Experimental Evaluation of Underwater Semantic SLAM by Song, Thomas Jeongho

“…Higher-level missions such as search, surveillance, maintenance and manipulation require greater situational awareness, decision-making and navigation abilities, facilitated by processing semantic visual information and applying it to map generation and localization. To address the limited autonomy of current AUVs and enhance their capability for complex missions, this thesis presents the development and evaluation of a real-time, monocular visual-inertial semantic Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) system for underwater environments, implemented on the cost-effective BlueROV2 platform. …”
