Aircraft Detection in High-Resolution SAR Images Based on a Gradient Textural Saliency Map

This paper proposes a new automatic and adaptive aircraft target detection algorithm in high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images of airport. The proposed method is based on gradient textural saliency map under the contextual cues of apron area. Firstly, the candidate regions with the po...
