  "textContent": "The present invention includes systems and methods for improving the process of detecting and classifying objects of interest using UUVs to survey the ocean. According to a particular embodiment, the present invention provides a more cost-efficient process by employing preconfigured heuristic operational scenarios, or supervised machine learning to fine-tune this process by integrating the use of environmental variables relating to the water in which data is gathered, and more particularly for classifying sonar images of the seafloor.",
