Abstract
AbstractThe navigation safety of polar ships depends on accurate monitoring of ice conditions along the route. Complex polar environments but scarce ice datasets pose challenges for deep learning‐based object detection methods. To address this issue, we propose an ice monitoring method based on polar environment adaptive image enhancement. This approach adaptively augments the ice dataset by simulating polar environments such as snowflakes and aurora to improve the training precision of ice detection models in harsh polar environments and meet the needs of safe navigation of polar ships. First, an image augmentation method based on randomly generated snowflake textures is proposed to address the difficulty of covering polar storm scenarios in existing ice datasets, which leads to weak generalization of ice monitoring models. Second, targeting the problem that the boundary between ice and background is confused by aurora phenomena, which severely reduces the ice monitoring accuracy, we propose an image augmentation method based on aurora simulations to improve the ice monitoring performance of trained models under aurora. Finally, an adaptive image augmentation strategy based on the brightness‐contrast threshold is proposed to optimize the snowflake density and aurora intensity in the augmented images to improve the discrimination of ice boundaries. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, which improves the ice state detection accuracy from 0.640 to 0.950, thus providing a reliable guarantee for the safe navigation of polar ships.
