Abstract:The detection of boulders in hydroacoustic data is essential for a range of environmental, economic and marine planning applications. The manual interpretation of hydroacoustic data for object detection is a non-trivial, tedious and subjective task. Using the conventional means accessible to hydrographic professionals, it is nearly impossible to locate all boulders or rule out their presence for extended areas of interest. Although it has been shown that AI can do the job quickly and reproducibly, earlier work… Show more
