Land Surface Water Mapping Using Multi-Scale Level Sets and a Visual Saliency Model from SAR Images

Land surface water mapping is one of the most basic classification tasks to distinguish water bodies from dry land surfaces. In this paper, a water mapping method was proposed based on multi-scale level sets and a visual saliency model (MLSVS), to overcome the lack of an operational solution for aut...
