Diver Interest via Pointing: Human-Directed Object Inspection for AUVs
Chelsey Edge, Junaed Sattar
In this paper, we present the Diver Interest via Pointing (DIP) algorithm, a highly modular method for conveying a diver's area of interest to an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV…
A Generative Approach for Detection-driven Underwater Image Enhancement
Chelsey Edge, Md Jahidul Islam, Christopher Morse +1
In this paper, we introduce a generative model for image enhancement specifically for improving diver detection in the underwater domain. In particular, we present a model that int…
Semantic Segmentation of Underwater Imagery: Dataset and Benchmark
Md Jahidul Islam, Chelsey Edge, Yuyang Xiao +5
In this paper, we present the first large-scale dataset for semantic Segmentation of Underwater IMagery (SUIM). It contains over 1500 images with pixel annotations for eight object…
Design and Experiments with LoCO AUV: A Low Cost Open-Source Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
Chelsey Edge, Sadman Sakib Enan, Michael Fulton +8
In this paper we present LoCO AUV, a Low-Cost, Open Autonomous Underwater Vehicle. LoCO is a general-purpose, single-person-deployable, vision-guided AUV, rated to a depth of 100 m…
Robot Communication Via Motion: Closing the Underwater Human-Robot Interaction Loop
Michael Fulton, Chelsey Edge, Junaed Sattar
In this paper, we propose a novel method for underwater robot-to-human communication using the motion of the robot as "body language". To evaluate this system, we develop simulated…
