Nonlinear unmixing of hyperspectral images: Models and algorithms
When considering the problem of unmixing hyperspectral images, most of the literature in the geoscience and image processing areas relies on the widely used linear mixing model (LMM). However, the LMM may be not valid, and other nonlinear models need to be considered, for instance, when there are multiscattering effects or intimate interactions. Consequently, over the last few years, several significant contributions have been proposed to overcome the limitations inherent in the LMM. In this article, we present an overview of recent advances in nonlinear unmixing modeling
Semi-supervised linear spectral unmixing using a hierarchical Bayesian model for hyperspectral imagery
This paper proposes a hierarchical Bayesian model that can be used for semi-supervised hyperspectral image unmixing. The model assumes that the pixel reflectances result from linear combinations of pure component spectra contaminated by an additive Gaussian noise. The abundance parameters appearing in this model satisfy positivity and additivity constraints. These constraints are naturally expressed in a Bayesian context by using appropriate abundance prior distributions. The posterior distributions of the unknown model parameters are then derived. A Gibbs sampler allows one to draw samples distributed according to the posteriors of interest and to estimate the unknown abundances. An extension of the algorithm is finally studied for mixtures with unknown numbers of spectral components belonging to a know library. The performance of the different unmixing strategies is evaluated via simulations conducted on synthetic and real data
Estimating the number of endmembers in hyperspectral images using the normal compositional model and a hierarchical Bayesian algorithm.
This paper studies a semi-supervised Bayesian unmixing algorithm for hyperspectral images. This algorithm is based on the normal compositional model recently introduced by Eismann and Stein. The normal compositional model assumes that each pixel of the image is modeled as a linear combination of an unknown number of pure materials, called endmembers. However, contrary to the classical linear mixing model, these endmembers are supposed to be random in order to model uncertainties regarding their knowledge. This paper proposes to estimate the mixture coefficients of the Normal Compositional Model (referred to as abundances) as well as their number using a reversible jump Bayesian algorithm. The performance of the proposed methodology is evaluated thanks to simulations conducted on synthetic and real AVIRIS images
GETNET: A General End-to-end Two-dimensional CNN Framework for Hyperspectral Image Change Detection
Change detection (CD) is an important application of remote sensing, which
provides timely change information about large-scale Earth surface. With the
emergence of hyperspectral imagery, CD technology has been greatly promoted, as
hyperspectral data with the highspectral resolution are capable of detecting
finer changes than using the traditional multispectral imagery. Nevertheless,
the high dimension of hyperspectral data makes it difficult to implement
traditional CD algorithms. Besides, endmember abundance information at subpixel
level is often not fully utilized. In order to better handle high dimension
problem and explore abundance information, this paper presents a General
End-to-end Two-dimensional CNN (GETNET) framework for hyperspectral image
change detection (HSI-CD). The main contributions of this work are threefold:
1) Mixed-affinity matrix that integrates subpixel representation is introduced
to mine more cross-channel gradient features and fuse multi-source information;
2) 2-D CNN is designed to learn the discriminative features effectively from
multi-source data at a higher level and enhance the generalization ability of
the proposed CD algorithm; 3) A new HSI-CD data set is designed for the
objective comparison of different methods. Experimental results on real
hyperspectral data sets demonstrate the proposed method outperforms most of the
state-of-the-arts
Nonlinear unmixing of hyperspectral images using a semiparametric model and spatial regularization
Incorporating spatial information into hyperspectral unmixing procedures has
been shown to have positive effects, due to the inherent spatial-spectral
duality in hyperspectral scenes. Current research works that consider spatial
information are mainly focused on the linear mixing model. In this paper, we
investigate a variational approach to incorporating spatial correlation into a
nonlinear unmixing procedure. A nonlinear algorithm operating in reproducing
kernel Hilbert spaces, associated with an local variation norm as the
spatial regularizer, is derived. Experimental results, with both synthetic and
real data, illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, submitted to ICASSP 201
