Introduction

Oil spill detection on X-band marine radar images based on sea clutter fitting model

“…For the sampled marine radar images, some other methods have been used to detect oil spills, such as the adaptive thresholding method, texture analysis, and machine learning. Sea clutter can also be estimated by polynomial fitting [ 34 ] and exponential fitting [ 35 ]. The machine learning method is fed by training data, which was affected by manual involvement.…”

“…One can determine the values of β in Equation (18) by means of the ordinary least square (OLS) method [ 34 ]. If the noise sampled by marine radar is Gaussian, then β can be obtained by …”
