Comparison of Possibilistic Fuzzy Local Information C-Means and Possibilistic K-Nearest Neighbors for Synthetic Aperture Sonar Image Segmentation

Abstract: Synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) imagery can generate high resolution images of the seafloor. Thus, segmentation algorithms can be used to partition the images into different seafloor environments. In this paper, we compare two possibilistic segmentation approaches. Possibilistic approaches allow… Read More

Overcoming Small Minirhizotron Datasets Using Transfer Learning

Abstract: Minirhizotron technology is widely used for studying the development of roots. Such systems collect visible-wavelength color imagery of plant roots in-situ by scanning an imaging system within a clear tube driven into the soil. Automated analysis of root systems… Read More

Root Identification in Minirhizotron Imagery with Multiple Instance Learning

Abstract: In this paper, multiple instance learning (MIL) algorithms to automatically perform root detection and segmentation in minirhizotron imagery using only image-level labels are proposed. Root and soil characteristics vary from location to location, thus, supervised machine learning approaches that… Read More

Possibilistic fuzzy local information C-means with automated feature selection for seafloor segmentation

Abstract: The Possibilistic Fuzzy Local Information C-Means (PFLICM) method is presented as a technique to segment side-look synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) imagery into distinct regions of the sea-floor. In this work, we investigate and present the results of an automated… Read More
