Most existing approaches for detecting salient areas in natural scenes are based on the saliency contrast within the local context of image. Nowadays, a few approaches not only consider the difference between the foreground objects and the surrounding background areas, but also consider the saliency objects as the candidates for the center of attention from the human’s perspective. This article provides a survey of saliency detection with visual attention, which exploit visual cues of foreground salient areas, visual attention based on saliency map, and deep learning based saliency detection. The published works are explained and descripted in detail, and some related key benchmark datasets are briefly presented. In this article, all documents are published from 2013 to 2018, giving an overview of the progress of the field of saliency detection.
