In general, underwater images suffer from color distortion and low contrast, because light is attenuated and backscattered as it propagates through water (differently depending on wavelength and on the properties of the water body). An…

The challenges in recovering underwater images are the presence of diverse degradation factors and the lack of ground truth images. Although synthetic underwater image pairs can be used to overcome the problem of inadequately observing…

Owing to refraction, absorption, and scattering of light by suspended particles in water, raw underwater images suffer from low contrast, blurred details, and color distortion. These characteristics can significantly interfere with the…

To assist underwater object detection for better performance, image enhancement technology is often used as a pre-processing step. However, most of the existing enhancement methods tend to pursue the visual quality of an image, instead of…

Mapping the seafloor with underwater imaging cameras is of significant importance for various applications including marine engineering, geology, geomorphology, archaeology and biology. For shallow waters, among the underwater imaging…

Underwater environments pose significant challenges due to the selective absorption and scattering of light by water, which affects image clarity, contrast, and color fidelity. To overcome these, we introduce OceanLens, a method that models…

Object pose estimation underwater allows an autonomous system to perform tracking and intervention tasks. Nonetheless, underwater target pose estimation is remarkably challenging due to, among many factors, limited visibility, light…

Underwater images suffer from color casts and low contrast due to wavelength- and distance-dependent attenuation and scattering. To solve these two degradation issues, we present an underwater image enhancement network via medium…

Underwater images play a key role in ocean exploration, but often suffer from severe quality degradation due to light absorption and scattering in water medium. Although major breakthroughs have been made recently in the general area of…

Underwater cameras are widely used to observe the sea floor. They are usually included in autonomous underwater vehicles, unmanned underwater vehicles, and in situ ocean sensor networks. Despite being an important sensor for monitoring…

Depth cameras, typically in RGB-D configurations, are common devices in mobile robotic platforms given their appealing features: high frequency and resolution, low price and power requirements, among others. These sensors may come with…

Underwater imaging grapples with challenges from light-water interactions, leading to color distortions and reduced clarity. In response to these challenges, we propose a novel Color Balance Prior \textbf{Guided} \textbf{Hyb}rid…

Remote sensing of oceanographic data often yields incomplete coverage of the measurement domain. This can limit interpretability of the data and identification of coherent features informative of ocean dynamics. Several methods exist to…

Underwater imagery often suffers from severe degradation resulting in low visual quality and reduced object detection performance. This work aims to evaluate state-of-the-art image enhancement models, investigate their effects on underwater…

Modern robotic manipulation primarily relies on visual observations in a 2D color space for skill learning but suffers from poor generalization. In contrast, humans, living in a 3D world, depend more on physical properties-such as distance,…

In this paper, we propose a novel approach for underwater image color correction based on a Tikhonov type optimization model in the CIELAB color space. It presents a new variational interpretation of the complementary adaptation theory in…

Background: Underwater images, in general, suffer from low contrast and high color distortions due to the non-uniform attenuation of the light as it propagates through the water. In addition, the degree of attenuation varies with the…

Depth estimation from a single underwater image is one of the most challenging problems and is highly ill-posed. Due to the absence of large generalized underwater depth datasets and the difficulty in obtaining ground truth depth-maps,…

Object detection aims to obtain the location and the category of specific objects in a given image, which includes two tasks: classification and location. In recent years, researchers tend to apply object detection to underwater robots…

This paper presents a novel approach to underwater terrain mapping for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) operating in close proximity to complex 3D environments. The proposed methodology creates a probabilistic elevation map of the…
