AUV-Based Side-Scan Sonar Real-Time Method for Underwater-Target Detection
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 The limitations of underwater acoustic communications mean that the side-scan sonar data of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) cannot be transmitted back and processed in real time, which means that targets cannot be detected in real time. To address

A Curvelet-Transform-Based Image Fusion Method Incorporating Side-Scan Sonar Image Features
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Current methods of fusing side-scan sonar images fail to tackle the issues of shadow removal, preservation of information from adjacent strip images, and maintenance of image clarity and contrast. To address these deficiencies, a novel curvelet-transform-

Real-Time Underwater Maritime Object Detection in Side-Scan Sonar Images Based on Transformer-YOLOv5
Remote Sensing, 2021 To overcome the shortcomings of the traditional manual detection of underwater targets in side-scan sonar (SSS) images, a real-time automatic target recognition (ATR) method is proposed in this paper. This method consists of image preprocessing, sampling,
