AUEs in the news |
Today the Autonomous Underwater Explorer project was featured in an article in the Scripps News and also a press release from the National Science Foundation. From the press release: In an effort to plug gaps in knowledge about key ocean processes, the National Science... |

Two articles submitted to IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering This Week |
After a long summer of writing we submitted two papers representing over two years of work to IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering. The first article [1] presents a comprehensive analysis of several multiview fusion algorithms for classifying inidividual fish from broadband acoustic scatter. The... |

Compressive Sensing |
I'm starting work today on a paper related to reconstructing a two-dimensional image of a fish from many observations of broadband scattering. Thus far, we have employed conventional dense reconstruction methods such as the inverse Radon transform and assumed a known geometry. This has lead to... |

WACV paper on multi* fusion accepted for poster presentation |
After returning from our first cruise with the MAZOOPS system, we heard the great news that our paper titled: "A Multiview, Multimodal Fusion Framework for Classifying Small Marine Animals with an Opto-Acoustic Imaging System" was accepted for a poster presentation at the WACV 2009 conference in... |

MAZOOPS first deployment at sea |
We returned yesterday from the first deployment of the new MAZOOPS zooplankton sonar at sea. We were able to deploy the system several times per day, and collected nearly 100 GB of acoustic and image data from two different stations off the coast of San Diego. Deployments of the MAZOOPS were... |
MAZOOPS
|
The Multiple Angle ZOOplankton Sonar (MAZOOPS) is a multiview, multimodal acoustic and optical zooplankton sonar system. It combines multiple, broadband acoustic sensors with a high-resolution camera and narrowband optical illumination. The system aims to provide enhanced information of zooplankton... |

MAZOOPS coming together for Sept. Cruise |
After more than a year of hard work, the Multiple Angle ZOOPlankton Sonar (MAZOOPS) is nearly ready for deployment at sea in September. On Friday we started the final assembly and will begin tank tests on Monday.

WACV paper on multi* fusion submitted last week |
Last week we submitted a paper to the 2009 Worshop on Applications of Computer Vision (WACV). The paper presents some recent results on fusing multiple views and multiple modalities together to improve classification performance. The application was to zooplankton classification which has... |
