A New Method on Inshore Ship Detection in High-Resolution Satellite Images Using Shape and Context Information

In this letter, we present a new method to detect inshore ships using shape and context information. We first propose a new energy function based on an active contour model to segment water and land and minimize it with an iterative global optimization method. The proposed energy performs well on th...
