Abstract

In this paper, we design a novel underwater hyperspectral imaging technique for deep-sea mining detection. The spectral sensitivity peaks are in the region of the visible spectrum, 580, 650, 720, 800 nm. In addition, to the underwater objects recognition, because of the physical properties of the medium, the captured images are distorted seriously by scattering, absorption and noise effect. Scattering is caused by large suspended particles, such as in turbid water, which contains abundant particles, algae, and dissolved organic compounds. In order to resolve these problems of recognizing mineral accurately, fast and effectively, an identifying and classifying algorithm is proposed in this paper. We take the following steps: firstly, through image preprocessing, hyperspectral images are gained by using denoising, smoothness, image erosion. After that, we segment the cells by the method of the modified active contour method. These methods are designed for real-time execution on limited-memory platforms, and are suitable for detecting underwater objects in practice. The Initial results are presented and experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed imaging system.
