• Abstract: There is no doubt that over the last decade, techniques from the field of machine learning have revolutionized how we process and interpret data, especially images and text. For underwater observations acoustics is a primary source of information, and naturally, deep learning methods have been applied to echograms and other acoustics data, but so far with rather modest results. Here, we argue that due to intrinsic properties of acoustic data, substantial advances will likely require research into deep learning methods beyond mere recycling of models and techniques from image processing. Currently, the potential for breakthroughs in method development is hindered by the lack of standard data formats and organization, and even more by the lack of readily available, high quality data sets with established performance goals. To advance the field, these shortcomings should be remedied

  We show that it is possible to distil knowledge during training from information-dense data into models which only require information-sparse data for inference. This improves downstream classification accuracy on information-sparse data, making it comparable with the fully-supervised baseline. This approach enables the design of models which require only routine images, but contain insights from state-of-the-art data, allowing better use of the available resources.
