Image Analysis in Marine and Maritime domain using computer vision techniques

Ocean imaging has become very popular nowadays, as an easy way to monitor the marine and maritime environment. Monitoring can be utilized for the protection of several threats that the Marine and Maritime industry faces or for the automation of everyday processes in the domains of border control, safety and security, fisheries control, customs, environment, defense, etc. The manual analysis of the large amounts of monitoring data is very time consuming and difficult task. Thus, the computer vision techniques have been extensively used to automate the process. Although computer vision has many advances the last years, the research for marine and maritime is at an early stage and several challenges remain open.

1) Basic knowledge in image processing or computer vision or deep learning, and;
2) Computer programming skills
