  • Abstract
    A scheme for detecting edges and lines in multichannel SAR images is proposed. The line detector is constructed from the edge detector. The latter is based on multivariate statistical hypothesis tests applied to log-intensity SAR images. The raw results are vectorized by a traditional bright line extraction process. The scheme is illustrated by extracting dark linear structures on various full-polarimetric SAR images.
