Histogram Layers for Synthetic Aperture Sonar Imagery

Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition 2023-05-04 v1 Artificial Intelligence Machine Learning Image and Video Processing

Abstract

Synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) imagery is crucial for several applications, including target recognition and environmental segmentation. Deep learning models have led to much success in SAS analysis; however, the features extracted by these approaches may not be suitable for capturing certain textural information. To address this problem, we present a novel application of histogram layers on SAS imagery. The addition of histogram layer(s) within the deep learning models improved performance by incorporating statistical texture information on both synthetic and real-world datasets.
