Abstract
In this paper a new segmentation method for SAR images is presented which requires applying edge detector such as Sobel, Robert, Prewitt, or canny. Then, use edge information in order to estimate the threshold values required for image segmentation. Segmenting SAR images with low contrast using the proposed method was very satisfactory and the obtained results are very promising.
