Abstract:

Difficulties and high computational costs in the model establishmen and parameter estimation seriously de-graded the efficiency of the underwater object detection system, making them too cumbersome to the practical work. A noval light intensity, spectrum and polarization feature fusion method was proposed. This method directly introduces the prior underwater knowledge into the system for feature fusion, getting rid of the harassment of the image preprocessing. Experiments prove that this method by comparison can achieve more reliable results at the lower computational cost.

Key words: underwater image processing, underwater object detection, information fusion, machine learning
