Underwater object detection methods are widely used in ocean exploration tasks, and precise center localization can help users find objects of interest accurately and quickly. In recent years, the underwater detector based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has achieved great success. However, due to the locality of convolution, the detector b...

In order to detect man-made objects in underwater video, we pro-pose and validate a novel method based on background subtraction methods.The other main contribution is the introduction of a priori elements deducedfrom positioning sensors. These elements allow to enhance the visibility ofunderwater objects thanks to the calculation of the sun positi...

... To illustrate the impact of our procedure, we present results here for several situations. In order to more conveniently demonstrate the reliability and robustness of our algorithm several parameters are introduced (with reference to Fig. 5) [17]: the true detection rate P d , the false alarm rate P fa , the false non detection rate P ndf , and the true nondetection rate P ndv . We analyze 6 video sequences corresponding to 7800 images. ...

Techniques are widely sought to detect and identify sea mines. This issue is characterized by complicated mine shapes and underwater light propagation dependencies. In a preliminary study we use a preprocessing step for denoising underwater images before applying the algorithm for mine detection. Once a mine is detected, the protocol for identifying it is activated. Among many correlation filters, we have focused our attention on the asymmetric segmented phase-only filter for quantifying the recognition rate because it allows us to significantly increase the number of reference images in the fabrication of this filter. Yet they are not entirely satisfactory in terms of recognition rate and the obtained images revealed to be of low quality. In this report, we propose a way to improve upon this preliminary study by using a single wavelength polarimetric camera in order to denoise the images. This permits us to enhance images and improve depth visibility. We present illustrative results using in situ polarization imaging of a target through a milk-water mixture and demonstrate that our challenging objective of increasing the detection rate and decreasing the false alarm rate has been achieved.
