Journal Article
TOLIE, H.F., REN, J., CHEN, R., ZHAO, H. and ELYAN, E. 2025. Blind sonar image quality assessment via machine learning: leveraging micro- and macro-scale texture and contour features in the wavelet domain. Engineering applications of artificial intelligence [online], 141, article number 109730. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engappai.2024.109730

In subsea environments, sound navigation and ranging (SONAR) images are widely used for exploring and monitoring infrastructures due to their robustness and insensitivity to low-light conditions. However, their quality can degrade during acquisition...
