Improvement of Automatic Man-made Object Detection in Underwater Videos by Using of Navigational Information

چکیده
In order to detect man-made objects in underwater video, we propose and validate a novel method based on background subtraction methods. The other main contribution is the introduction of a priori elements deduced from positioning sensors. These elements allow to enhance the visibility of underwater objects thanks to the calculation of the sun position in relation to the vehicle position, the detection with the distance from the object and the post-processing with constraints defined on the vehicle movements. These constraints allow to reject false detections and to better know the position of the detected object. We tested our algorithm on data acquired at sea and show that we improve detection results and decrease false alarm rate, comparing to our former work. Both algorithms have been applied on the same videos. We still have to increase the true detection rate while reducing processing time i.e. processing time should be close to video rate.

Automatic identification and localization of cartographic objects in aerial and satellite images have gained increasing attention in recent years in digital photogrammetry and remote sensing. Although the automatic extraction of man made objects in essence is still an unresolved issue, the man made objects can be extracted from aerial photos and satellite images. Recently, the high-resolution s...

According to the cities expansion, updating urban maps for urban planning is important and its effectiveness is depend on the information extraction / change detection accuracy. Information extraction methods are divided into two groups, including Pixel-Based (PB) and Object-Based (OB). OB analysis has overcome the limitations of PB analysis (producing salt-pepper results and features with hole...

In this paper, a novel automated and hierarchical object-based method for detecting and extracting of roads is proposed. This research is based on the M...
متن کاملDetecting man-made objects in unconstrained subsea videos
We present a system detecting the presence of unconstrained man-made objects in unconstrained subsea videos. Classification is based on contours, which are reasonably stable features in underwater imagery. First, the system determines automatically an optimal scale for contour extraction by optimising a quality metric. Second, a two-feature Bayesian classifier determines whether the image conta...
متن کاملObject-Oriented Method for Automatic Extraction of Road from High Resolution Satellite Images
As the information carried in a high spatial resolution image is not represented by single pixels but by meaningful image objects, which include the association of multiple pixels and their mutual relations, the object based method has become one of the most commonly used strategies for the processing of high resolution imagery. This processing comprises two fundamental and critical steps towar...
