<div>Bayesian optimization is a popular sequential decision strategy that can be used for environmental monitoring. In this work, we propose an efficient multi-Autonomous Surface Vehicle system capable of monitoring the Ypacarai Lake (San Bernardino, Paraguay) (60 km<sup>2</sup>) using the Bayesian optimization approach with a Voronoi Partition system. The system manages to quickly approximate the real unknown distribution map of a water quality parameter using Gaussian Processes as surrogate models. Furthermore, to select new water quality measurement locations, an acquisition function adapted to vehicle energy constraints is used. Moreover, a Voronoi Partition system helps to distributing the workload with all the available vehicles, so that robustness and scalability is assured. For evaluation purposes, we use both the mean squared error and computational efficiency. The results showed that our method manages to efficiently monitor the Ypacarai Lake, and also provides confident approximate models of water quality parameters. It has been observed that, for every vehicle, the resulting surrogate model improves by 38%.</div>

The question of how people make use of automation to support their decision making is becoming increasingly important. As computers provide ever greater input to the collection, analysis and interpretation of data, so they are more likely to be partners in decision making. However, when automation makes recommendations that the human disagrees with or that might be based on erroneous analysis, then this could result in a change in decision strategy. It is not simply a matter of ignoring or rejecting the recommendation but rather a matter of deciding how best to make use of the automation’s output. By modeling information search and decision strategies under different levels of information reliability, we demonstrate that it makes sense to adapt decision strategy to the information context.
