Popis: Multi-gliders have been widely deployed as an array in nowadays ocean observation for fine and long-term ocean research, especially in deep-sea exploration. However, the strong, variable ocean currents and the delayed information feedback of gliders are remaining huge challenges for the deployment of glider arrays which may cause that the observed data cannot meet the study needs and bring a prohibitive cost. In this paper, we develop a Glider Simulation Model (GSM) based on the support vector regression with the particle swarm optimization (PSO)-SVR algorithm to integrate the information feedback from gliders and ocean current data for rapid modeling to effectively predict the gliders’ trajectories. Based on the real-time predictive information of the trajectories, each glider can select future movement strategies. We utilize the in-suit datasets obtained by sea-wing gliders in ocean observation to train and test the simulation model. The results show that GSM has an effective and stable performance. The information obtained from the modeling approaches can be utilized for the optimization of the deployment of the glider arrays.
