A Methodology for Characterizing Underwater Radiated Noise from Submerged Electric Vehicles in a Coastal Environment: An AUV Test Case
Mark Shipton, Amir Boag, Roee Diamant
Submerged electric vehicles (SEVs), including autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), remotely operated vehicles, and diver propulsion systems, may radiate distinct tonal, harmonic,…
ShipEcho -- An Interactive Tool for Global Mapping of Underwater Radiated Noise from Vessels
Mark Shipton, Valentino Denona, Đula Nađ +1
Underwater radiated noise from vessels (V-URN) is a recognized environmental stressor that negatively impacts marine ecosystems. Significant resources are invested in the developme…
Automatic Detection and Annotation of Sperm Whale Codas
Guy Gubnitsky, Yaly Mevorach, Shane Gero +2
A key technology in sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) monitoring is the identification of sperm whale communication signals, known as codas. In this paper we present the first a…
Multiple Mobile Target Detection and Tracking in Active Sonar Array Using a Track-Before-Detect Approach
Avi Abu, Nikola Miskovic, Oleg Chebotar +2
We present an algorithm for detecting and tracking underwater mobile objects using active acoustic transmission of broadband chirp signals whose reflections are received by a hydro…
Review of Cetacean's click detection algorithms
Mak Gracic, Guy Gubnisky, Roee Diamant
The detection of echolocation clicks is key in understanding the intricate behaviors of cetaceans and monitoring their populations. Cetacean species relying on clicks for navigatio…
Detecting the presence of sperm whales echolocation clicks in noisy environments
Guy Gubnitsky, Roee Diamant
Sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) navigate underwater with a series of impulsive, click-like sounds known as echolocation clicks. These clicks are characterized by a multipulse…
Underwater object classification combining SAS and transferred optical-to-SAS Imagery
Avi Abu, Roee Diamant
Combining synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) imagery with optical images for underwater object classification has the potential to overcome challenges such as water clarity, the stabil…
