    Abstract

    In this paper we study the problem of rock detection in a Mars-like environment. We propose a convolutional neural network (CNN) to obtain a segmented image. The CNN is a modified version of the U-net architecture with a smaller number of parameters to improve the inference time. The performance of the methodology is proved in a dataset that contains several images of a Mars-like environment, achieving an F-score of 78.5%.
