This study explores underwater acoustic classification and imaging using high-frequency active sonar. It presents a Bayesian framework for optimal decision rules and array processing, quantifying performance based on object geometry and prior knowledge.

Area of Science:

  • Acoustics
  • Signal Processing
  • Machine Learning

Background:

  • Underwater acoustic classification and imaging are crucial for various applications.
  • High-frequency active sonar systems present unique challenges for accurate detection and identification.
  • Existing methods often lack a unified theoretical framework for optimal performance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a comprehensive Bayesian theoretic framework for underwater acoustic classification and imaging.
  • To present and evaluate optimum decision rules and array processing techniques.
  • To establish a systematic methodology for performance evaluation.

Main Methods:

  • Bayesian inference and decision theory applied to acoustic signal processing.
  • Development of optimal array processing algorithms for sonar data.
