This paper presents a multiresolution textural approach to change detection in multitemporal
polarimetric synthetic aperture radar images. Several change detection methods utilizing
wavelet based features from remotely sensed images have been developed previously. The
aim of this paper is to investigate and propose a texture based change detection method that
applies curvelet and contourlet transforms on polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR)
images. The proposed approach exploits curvelet and contourlet based multiscale …
