Autonomous And Real Time Rock Image Classification Using Convolutional Neural Networks, Alexis David Pascual
Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository
Autonomous image recognition has numerous potential applications in the field of planetary science and geology. For instance, having the ability to classify images of rocks would allow geologists to have immediate feedback without having to bring back samples to the laboratory. Also, planetary rovers could classify rocks in remote places and even in other planets without needing human intervention. In 2017, Shu et. al. used a Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification algorithm to classify 9 different types of rock images using a with the image features extracted autonomously. Through this method, they achieved a test accuracy of 96.71%. Within the …
