Sonar image processing for underwater object detection based on high resolution system
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper is concerned with the problem of recognition of objects laying on the sea-bed and presented on sonar images. Considering that high resolution sonar system provides acoustic images of high-quality, several researches have been interested in Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) and Sides can sonar images for underwater objects. This work presents recent detection algorithms targeting their main specificity and innovations during the different steps of sonar image processing. Keywords-component; objects recognition; high-quality system; image processing; sonar image.

Object-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...
متن کاملA Detailed Study of Sonar Tomographic Imaging
Sonar tomography is a technique to obtain a two-dimensional image of an underwater object using a sequence of one-dimensional images, or ‘projections’, of the object of interest. We discuss sonar tomography in a detailed manner and compare the performance of two important ‘back-projection algorithms’ commonly used in tomography. The two processing techniques are applied to the imaging of relati...

But the object resolution detected decreases as the depth increasing, its data processing with high mistake, used rarely in sea floor object survey.So GeoSwath, a multibeam sonar does. Although it covers an angular range of -120°to 120 °from the vertical direction, providing high...
متن کاملUnderwater Object Identification in Laser Line Scan Imagery
Our long term goal is to provide the Navy with a robust automated target cueing and identification capability for use with high resolution underwater imaging sensors such as Raytheon’s laser line scan system. These electro-optical sensors operate at standoff ranges to survey large areas of the underwater environment in search of naval targets of interest and are currently being incorporated int...
متن کاملUnderwater Detection, Classification and Tracking Using Wideband Sonar
The Ocean Systems Laboratory is developing bio-inspired wideband acoustic sensing methods for underwater target detection and tracking. In this paper we explore what we expect to gain from wideband sonar used alone or in combination with ubiquitous sidescan and forward-look imaging sonars. The wideband sensors themselves are based on bottlenose dolphin sonar, covering a frequency band from arou...
