Abstract. The extraction of reliable features is a key issue for autonomous underwater vehicle navigation. Imaging sonars can produce acoustic images of the surroundings of the veh...
— This paper describes a navigation system for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) in partially structured environments, such as dams, harbors, marinas or marine platforms. A m...
Most data used in the study of seafloor hydrothermal plumes consists of sonar (acoustic) scans and sensor readings. Visual data captures only a portion of the sonar data range due...

In this paper, we present a new approach to extracting the target text line from a document image captured by a pen scanner. Given the binary image, a set of possible text lines a...
In this paper, we propose a novel method of body feature extraction from a marker-less scanned body. The descriptions of human body features mostly defined in ASTM (1999) and ISO...
