Kelp Detection in Highly Dynamic Environments Using Texture Recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes a texture recognition based method for segmenting kelp from images collected in highly dynamic shallow water environments by an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). A particular challenge is image quality that is affected by uncontrolled lighting, reduced visibility, significantly varying perspective due to platform egomotion, and kelp sway from wave action. The kelp segmentation approach uses the Mahalanobis distance as a way to classify Haralick texture features from sub-regions within an image. The results illustrate the applicability of the method to classify kelp allowing construction of probability maps of kelp masses across a sequence of images.

متن کاملHuman Activity Recognition Using a Dynamic Texture Based Method
We present a novel approach for human activity recognition. The method uses dynamic texture descriptors to describe human movements in a spatiotemporal way. The same features are also used for human detection, which makes our whole approach computationally simple. Following recent trends in computer vision research, our method works on image data rather than silhouettes. We test our method on a...
