Enhancing Marine Debris Acoustic Monitoring by Optical Flow-Based Motion Vector Analysis

  • 基于光流分析时间序列声呐图像,捕捉垃圾运动特征。
  • 实验在循环水槽中验证,对低噪弱纹理图像仍有效。
  • 适合无人监督的海洋垃圾长期监测,尤其深海场景。

随着海岸建设发展,大量人类产生的废弃物(尤其是塑料垃圾)持续进入海洋,严重威胁海洋生态系统。有效应对塑料污染的关键在于实现废弃物的自主监测。目前主要依赖光学传感器,但受水体浑浊度影响,在水下和海底区域应用受限。声学相机(即高分辨率前视声呐,FLS)因不受水体浑浊与黑暗环境影响,展现出在自主监测海洋垃圾方面的巨大潜力。然而,声呐图像中目标外观随视角变化,且存在信噪比低、纹理弱、成像畸变等问题,给基于先验类别标签的监测带来挑战。本文提出一种基于光流的海洋垃圾监测方法,旨在充分利用声学相机捕获的时间序列信息,实现无需预先类别标签的垃圾监测。通过循环水槽实验验证了该方法的可行性和鲁棒性,有望为垃圾的空间与时间分布提供新视角。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

With the development of coastal construction, a large amount of human-generated waste, particularly plastic debris, is continuously entering the ocean, posing a severe threat to marine ecosystems. The key to effectively addressing plastic pollution lies in the ability to autonomously monitor such debris. Currently, marine debris monitoring primarily relies on optical sensors, but these methods are limited in their applicability to underwater and seafloor areas due to low-visibility constraints. The acoustic camera, also known as high-resolution forward-looking sonar (FLS), has demonstrated considerable potential in the autonomous monitoring of marine debris, as they are unaffected by water turbidity and dark environments. The appearance of targets in sonar images changes with variations in the imaging viewpoint, while challenges such as low signal-to-noise ratio, weak textures, and imaging distortions in sonar imagery present significant obstacles to debris monitoring based on prior class labels. This paper proposes an optical flow-based method for marine debris monitoring, aiming to fully utilize the time series information captured by the acoustic camera to enhance the performance of marine debris monitoring without relying on prior category labels of the targets. The proposed method was validated through experiments conducted in a circulating water tank, demonstrating its feasibility and robustness. This approach holds promise for providing novel insights into the spatial and temporal distribution of debris.
