Bayesian seabed classification using angle-dependent backscatter data from multibeam echo sounders
(2014)
Acoustical seabed classification is a technology for mapping seabed sediments. Processed multibeam sonar data yield the variation of the seabed scattering strength with incidence angle, and this paper examines the effect ...
Reducing scalloping in synthetic aperture radar images using a composite image transform
(2015)
In burst mode SAR imaging, echo intensity depends on the target's azimuth position in the antenna pattern.
As a result, an amplitude modulation known as scalloping may appear, particularly in ScanSAR images
of ocean ...
Acoustic seabed classification using QTC IMPACT on single-beam echo sounder data from the Norwegian Channel, northern North Sea
(2013)
Sediment mapping is important for understanding the physical processes, the impact of human activity, and the conditions for marine life on the seabed. For this purpose, the seabed classification tool QTC IMPACT analyses ...
A Radon-Transform-Based Image Noise Filter - With Applications to Multibeam Bathymetry
(2015)
This paper describes a linear-image-transform-based algorithm for reducing stripe noise, track line artifacts, and motion-induced errors in remote sensing data. Developed for multibeam bathymetry (MB), the method has also ...
Hierarchical path planning for walking (almost) anywhere
(2018)
Computerized path planning, not constrained to transportation networks, may be useful in a range of settings, from search and rescue to archaeology. This paper develops a method for general path planning intended to work ...
