Abstract: Salient region detection technology is a very active research area and is applied extensively.How to find sa-lient region of the image quickly and accurately has not yet formed a complete theoretical system.In addition,salient region detection technology is closely related to application.So this technology is still a challenging research topic.A survey on salient region detection technology was given in the paper.Firstly,bottom-up and top-down salient region detection approaches were discussed in detail,including technique classification and typical techniques.Secondly,evaluation criteria and open saliency evaluation databases were discussed.At last,the main problems and challenges were highlightedbased on analysis of current research.
