Signal-Centric Remote Sensing via Alternative Preprocessing and Acoustic Processing for ML-Driven Applications

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper proposes a new approach to processing sonar data for remote sensing by using CSV-format data instead of traditional image-based representations. Experiments demonstrate a 91.18% reduction in processing time, improved accuracy of machine‑learning object detection, and higher signal‑to‑noise and peak‑signal‑to‑noise ratios.

Improved Automatic Target Recognition in Synthetic Aperture Sonar Imagery Using Large Deep Neural Networks

The paper investigates Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) in Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) imagery, comparing modern convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformer-based deep neural networks (DNNs). It examines how factors such as network size, architecture, pretraining methods, data augmentation, and regularization influence performance, aiming to identify the highest-performing model and provide a training roadmap for state‑of‑the‑art SAS‑ATR systems.
