Fishing Net Health State Estimation Using Underwater Imaging
2020
Overview
Fishing net cleanliness plays a critical role for aquaculture industry as bio-fouled nets restrict the flow of water through the net leading to a build-up of toxins and reduced oxygen levels within the pen, thereby putting the fish under increased stress. In this paper, we proposed an underwater fishing Net Health State Estimation (NHSE) method, which can automatically analyze the degree of fouling on the net through underwater image analysis using remotely operated vehicles (ROV) images, and calculate a blocking percentage metric of each net opening. The level of fouling estimated through this method help the operators decide on the need of cleaning or maintenance schedule. There are mainly six modules in the proposed NHSE method, namely user interaction, distortion correction, underwater image dehazing, marine growth segmentation, net-opening structure analysis, and blocked percentage estimation. To evaluate the proposed NHSE method, we collected and labeled several underwater images in Mulroy Bay, Ireland with pixel-wise annotations. In order to verify the universality and robustness of the algorithm, we simulated and built a virtual fishing farm, and, on this basis, collected and labeled fishing net images under different environmental conditions. Seven evaluation metrics are introduced to demonstrate the effectiveness and advantages of the proposed method.
