This paper introduces computer vision methods for detecting, recognising, and estimating Nephrops norvegicus (Norway lobster) burrow density via Underwater Television surveys. The current manual approach involves human operators visually assessing videos, which is prone to errors and subjectivity. Automated machine learning systems show promise in identifying and counting burrows, potentially standardising recognition and reducing operator errors. However, challenges exist in implementing computer vision techniques. An automated system aims to process video streams, detect seabed openings, extract visual features, and classify N. norvegicus burrows, significantly advancing the automation of underwater video reading. The primary processing presented in the paper lies in a boosting algorithm capable of extending the original annotated ground truth and assessing the improved performance of the extended data set with respect to the original one.

摘要

This paper introduces computer vision methods for detecting, recognising, and estimating Nephrops norvegicus (Norway lobster) burrow density via Underwater Television surveys. The current manual approach involves human operators visually assessing videos, which is prone to errors and subjectivity. Automated machine learning systems show promise in identifying and counting burrows, potentially standardising recognition and reducing operator errors. However, challenges exist in implementing computer vision techniques. An automated system aims to process video streams, detect seabed openings, extract visual features, and classify N. norvegicus burrows, significantly advancing the automation of underwater video reading. The primary processing presented in the paper lies in a boosting algorithm capable of extending the original annotated ground truth and assessing the improved performance of the extended data set with respect to the original one.
