Hierarchical Fish Species Detection in Real-Time Video Using YOLO
Master's thesis in Information- and communication technology (IKT590) Information gathering of aquatic life is often based on time consuming methods with a foundation in video feeds. It would be beneficial to capture more information in a cost effective manner from video feeds, and video object detection has an opportunity to achieve this. Recent research has shown promising results with the use of YOLO for object detection of fish. As under-water conditions can be difficult and fish species hard to discriminate, we propose the use of a hierarchical structures in both the classification and the dataset to gain valuable information. With the use of hierarchical classification and other techn…
Hierarchical Object Detection applied to Fish Species
Gathering information of aquatic life is often based on timeconsuming methods utilizing video feeds. It would be beneficial to capture more information cost-effectively from video feeds. Video based object detection has an ability to achieve this. Recent research has shown promising results with the use of YOLO for object detection of fish. As underwater conditions can be difficult and thus fish species are hard to discriminate. This study proposes a hierarchical structure-based YOLO Fish algorithm in both the classification and the dataset to gain valuable information. With the use of hierarchical classification and other techniques. YOLO Fish is a state-of-the-art object detector on Nordi…
