چکیده
SONAR is the acronym for SOund Navigation And Ranging. Sonar techology is similar to other technologies such as: RADAR = RAdio Detection And Ranging; ultrasound, which typically is used with higher frequencies in medical applications; seismics, which typically uses lower frequencies in the sediments. The knowledge and understanding of underwater sound is not new. Leonardo Da Vinci discovered in 1490 that acoustics propagate well in the ocean:

A Modified Grey Wolf Optimizer by Individual Best Memory and Penalty Factor for Sonar and Radar Dataset Classification
Meta-heuristic Algorithms (MA) are widely accepted as excellent ways to solve a variety of optimization problems in recent decades. Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) is a novel Meta-heuristic Algorithm (MA) that has been generated a great deal of research interest due to its advantages such as simple implementation and powerful exploitation. This study proposes a novel GWO-based MA and two extra fea...
متن کاملTraining Radial Basis Function Neural Network using Stochastic Fractal Search Algorithm to Classify Sonar Dataset
Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBF NNs) are one of the most applicable NNs in the classification of real targets. Despite the use of recursive methods and gradient descent for training RBF NNs, classification improper accuracy, failing to local minimum and low-convergence speed are defects of this type of network. In order to overcome these defects, heuristic and meta-heuristic algorith...
متن کاملClutter Removal in Sonar Image Target Tracking Using PHD Filter
In this paper we have presented a new procedure for sonar image target tracking using PHD filter besides K-means algorithm in high density clutter environment. We have presented K-means as data clustering technique in this paper to estimate the location of targets. Sonar images target tracking is a very good sample of high clutter environment. As can be seen, PHD filter because of its special f...
متن کاملRapid Simultaneous Learning of Multiple Behaviours with a Mobile Robot
Although various robot behaviour learning methods have been available for some time they generally are too slow to be of much practical use. This paper provides a brief introduction to a novel robot behaviour learning method called Trajectory Velocity Learning and provides some details on implementing Trajectory Velocity Learning on sonar robots with differential drive wheels. The main advantag...
متن کاملA Century of Sonar : Planetary Oceanography , Underwater Noise Monitoring , and the Terminology of Underwater Sound
Introduction The current terminology of underwater sound, as documented, for example, by (Urick, 1983), was developed during and after the Second World War (ASA, 1951; Urick, 1967), and has evolved little since then (Jensen et al., 2011). When examined against a modern requirement, with particular attention to the needs of planetary oceanography and underwater noise, this 60-year old terminolog...
