The detection of an isolated localized structure in a noisy background, with no a priori information about its presence, nor its shape presents multiple drawbacks. Nevertheless, this problem is present in a great number of applications as, for instance, ship detection from satellite radar imagery. Conventional algorithms for ship detection are conceived to discriminate an exceptionally bright localized pattern according to an established decision rule, expressed by the determination of a threshold. But the adjustment of thresholds involved in the decision step is complicated and relies on the existence of a considerable contrast between the vessels and the surrounding sea clutter which is not always reached. Thus, a novel method, based on the intrascale dependencies between wavelet coefficients in the different subbands, is proposed, justified and successfully tested on simulated and real images.
