Image feature matching is essential in many computer vision applications, and the foundation of matching is feature detection, which is a crucial feature quantification process. This manuscript focused on detecting more features from underwater acoustic imageries for further ocean engineering applications of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). Currently, the mainstream feature detection operators are developed for optical images, and there is not yet a feature detector oriented to underwater acoustic imagery. To better analyze the suitability of existing feature detectors for acoustic imagery and develop an operator that can robustly detect feature points in underwater imageries in the future, this manuscript compared the performance of well-established handcrafted feature detectors and that of the increasingly popular deep-learning-based detectors to fill the gap in the literature. The datasets tested are from the most commonly used side-scan sonars (SSSs) and forward-looking sonars (FLSs). Additionally, the detection idea of these detectors on the acoustic imagery phase congruency (PC) layer was innovatively proposed with the aim of finding a solution that balances detection accuracy and speed. The experimental results show that the ORB (Oriented FAST and Rotated BRIEF) and BRISK (Binary Robust Invariant Scalable Keypoints) detectors achieve the best overall performance, the FAST detector is the fastest, and the PC and Sobel layers are the most favorable for implementing feature detection. |
