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
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
Parsimonious Mahalanobis Kernel for the Classification of High Dimensional Data
The classification of high dimensional data with kernel methods is considered
in this article. Exploit- ing the emptiness property of high dimensional
spaces, a kernel based on the Mahalanobis distance is proposed. The computation
of the Mahalanobis distance requires the inversion of a covariance matrix. In
high dimensional spaces, the estimated covariance matrix is ill-conditioned and
its inversion is unstable or impossible. Using a parsimonious statistical
model, namely the High Dimensional Discriminant Analysis model, the specific
signal and noise subspaces are estimated for each considered class making the
inverse of the class specific covariance matrix explicit and stable, leading to
the definition of a parsimonious Mahalanobis kernel. A SVM based framework is
used for selecting the hyperparameters of the parsimonious Mahalanobis kernel
by optimizing the so-called radius-margin bound. Experimental results on three
high dimensional data sets show that the proposed kernel is suitable for
classifying high dimensional data, providing better classification accuracies
than the conventional Gaussian kernel
