Acoustic image formation and interpretation

Awarded: NOK 7.7 mill.

This proposal outlines a cross-disciplinary project for acoustic image formation in terms of seismic data processing, signal processing for sonar image formation and processing, and image analysis and pattern recognition for information extraction from th e acoustic signal. It will be carried out by expert scientists at Centre for Imaging at the University of Oslo. The main goals of this project are: (i) to demonstrate the potential of integrated image formation/interpretation on sonar and seismic imaging; (ii) to develop new, efficient and accurate iterative seismic imaging methods for the special case of salt tectonics; and (iii) to develop new sonar image analysis techniques in conjunction with refinement of enhancement techniques for sonar image featur e extraction.
