Automated Marking of Underwater Animals Using a Cascade of Neural Networks

In this work, a multifactorial problem of analyzing the seabed state of plants and animals using photo and video materials is considered. Marine research to monitor benthic communities and automatic mapping of underwater landscapes make it possible to qualitatively assess the state of biomes. The task includes several components: preparation of a methodology for data analysis, their aggregation, analysis, presentation of results. In this work, we focused on methods for automating detection and data presentation.
