Sažetak
Underwater videography enables marine researchers to collect enormous amounts of seagrass image data. This collection is fast and cheap but the manual analysis of such data is slow and expensive. Therefore, we propose a machine- learning approach for the automatic seagrass coverage estimation of the sea bottom. Our contribution is the investigation of CNN features to describe patches and superpixels of seagrass. CNN features are the activations of a specific layer in a deep convolutional neural network. We also provide the first public available dataset of seagrass images that can be used as a benchmark for automatic seagrass segmentation. Our best method achieves an accuracy of 94.5% for seagrass segmentation on the provided dataset. Our code and dataset is available on GitHub: https://enviewfulda.github.io/LookingForSeagrass
