New dataset SCTD 3.0 aims to advance underwater target detection

Researchers have introduced SCTD 3.0, a large-scale dataset designed to improve the detection of underwater targets using Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS). This dataset features over 10,000 real SAS image snippets across ten target categories, captured with multi-frequency systems in natural waters. SCTD 3.0 includes a rigorous annotation protocol for fine-grained target characterization and establishes a multi-task benchmark to evaluate deep learning models on generalization across various conditions.

    SCTD 3.0: Sonar Common Target Detection in the Wild - A Large-Scale, Multi-Scene Dataset from Real Marine Surveys

    arXiv:2608.08106v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) is core for wide-area detection of small underwater targets. However, large-scale, high-quality SAS datasets are scarce, hindering data-driven recognition. Existing benchmarks are small and limited to …
