Abstract

Marine oil spills have a significant adverse impact on the economy, ecology, and human health. Rapid and effective oil spill monitoring action is extraordinarily important for controlling marine pollution. A marine oil spill detection scheme based on X-band shipborne radar image with machine learning is proposed here. First, the original shipborne radar image collected on Dalian 7.16 oil spill accident was transformed into a Cartesian coordinate system and noise suppressed. Then, texture features and SVM were used to indicate the effective monitoring location of ocean waves. Third, FCM was applied to classify the oil films and ocean waves. Finally, the oil spill detection result was transformed back to a polar coordinate system. Compared with an improved active contour model and another oil spill detection method with SVM, our method performed more intelligently. It can provide data support for marine oil spill emergency response.
