Abstract

This paper explores deep learning-based classification of sonar images into shipwrecks and airplanes using VGG19 and Siamese networks, with the VGG19 model achieving superior performance in underwater object detection.

Conclusion

The study validates the effectiveness of VGG19 for sonar image classification, demonstrating higher accuracy compared to the Siamese Network. Future enhancements will focus on dataset expansion, transformer-based models, and hybrid deep learning architectures.
