Data-augmented vision system for maritime object detection
Accurate maritime vessel detection from aerial imagery remains a significant challenge, despite advances in convolutional neural networks. Our research addresses this by introducing a novel data-augmented vision system, demonstrating over a 10% improvement in cross-sensor vessel detection precision. This system integrates multiple sensors, advanced data augmentation techniques, and diverse CNN architectures to enhance resilience. Composed of six key subsystems—from image acquisition to system validation—it establishes a foundation for robust maritime applications.

Ocean-aware deep learning for civilian maritime object detection and tracking in complex ocean environments: a comprehensive review
Reliable maritime object detection and tracking are paramount for civilian ocean engineering, supporting applications from vessel traffic monitoring to environmental risk assessment. However, dynamic ocean conditions—including sea clutter and limited data—present significant challenges. This review synthesizes recent advances in ocean-aware deep learning, examining techniques utilizing optical, radar, and other sensor data alongside AIS information. Addressing limitations in annotation and real-time deployment, future research should prioritize physics-informed learning and data fusion.
