Abstract
Algorithm for sea surface ship detection is described. The algorithm is designed for ship detection in SAR images. Morphological filter is introduced to decrease false alarms. Scan line based seed cluster algorithm is used during ship pixel clustering. Ship parameters can be estimated finally
