In this paper, we introduce a computational model of top-down saliency based on multiscale orientation information for artificial object detection for satellite images. Further more, the top-down saliency is integrated with bottom-up saliency to obtain the saliency map in satellite images. We compare our method to several state-of-the-art saliency detection models and demonstrate the superior performance in artificial object detection for satellite images.
