New dataset and metric quantify information loss in turbid underwater scenes

Researchers have introduced a new dataset and metric to better understand how turbidity affects computer vision models in underwater environments. The Turbid Underwater Baseline (TUB) dataset contains 1,320 images captured in highly turbid conditions, along with over 16,000 segmentation masks. They also propose a metric called PCD, derived from phase congruency maps, which is designed to capture the loss of structural information and shows a strong correlation with the performance of instance segmentation models, unlike existing metrics.

    Beyond Aesthetics: Quantifying Information Loss in Turbid Scenes

    arXiv:2606.26295v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Visibility in underwater environments degrades rapidly under turbid conditions, yet the effects on computer-vision models remain unclear. This issue is compounded by reliance on synthetic turbidity datasets, which may misrepresent r…
