Abstract

ABSTRACT In this work, indirect inference (II) techniques are applied to estimate the parameters of a non-linear manoeuvring model of a remotely operated vehicle (ROV). In the application of this method, a set of auxiliary statistics is established in the optimisation process in order to improve the efficiency of the estimated parameters. For the parameter estimation, data from different tests are available, which were carried out with a ROV in the facilities of the Centro de Experiencias Hidrodinámicas del Pardo INTA/CEHIPAR, Madrid. The model obtained is validated by means of graphical and statistical methods with the acquired data and the statistical properties of the estimated parameters are evaluated by means of a Monte Carlo study.
