Abstract
In this paper, an algorithm devoted to the segmentation of acoustic three-dimensional sparse images is presented. The goal is the discrimination and the reconstruction of the objects present in an underwater scene. The final aim is to obtain an augmented representation of such images providing a virtual representation of the recognized objects in order to support a human operator for the navigation and inspection of underwater environments
