Locality and Structure Regularized Low Rank Representation for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Hyperspectral image (HSI) classification, which aims to assign an accurate
label for hyperspectral pixels, has drawn great interest in recent years.
Although low rank representation (LRR) has been used to classify HSI, its
ability to segment each class from the whole HSI data has not been exploited
fully yet. LRR has a good capacity to capture the underlying lowdimensional
subspaces embedded in original data. However, there are still two drawbacks for
LRR. First, LRR does not consider the local geometric structure within data,
which makes the local correlation among neighboring data easily ignored.
Second, the representation obtained by solving LRR is not discriminative enough
to separate different data. In this paper, a novel locality and structure
regularized low rank representation (LSLRR) model is proposed for HSI
classification. To overcome the above limitations, we present locality
constraint criterion (LCC) and structure preserving strategy (SPS) to improve
the classical LRR. Specifically, we introduce a new distance metric, which
combines both spatial and spectral features, to explore the local similarity of
pixels. Thus, the global and local structures of HSI data can be exploited
sufficiently. Besides, we propose a structure constraint to make the
representation have a near block-diagonal structure. This helps to determine
the final classification labels directly. Extensive experiments have been
conducted on three popular HSI datasets. And the experimental results
demonstrate that the proposed LSLRR outperforms other state-of-the-art methods.Comment: 14 pages, 7 figures, TGRS201
Hyperspectral Unmixing Overview: Geometrical, Statistical, and Sparse Regression-Based Approaches
Imaging spectrometers measure electromagnetic energy scattered in their
instantaneous field view in hundreds or thousands of spectral channels with
higher spectral resolution than multispectral cameras. Imaging spectrometers
are therefore often referred to as hyperspectral cameras (HSCs). Higher
spectral resolution enables material identification via spectroscopic analysis,
which facilitates countless applications that require identifying materials in
scenarios unsuitable for classical spectroscopic analysis. Due to low spatial
resolution of HSCs, microscopic material mixing, and multiple scattering,
spectra measured by HSCs are mixtures of spectra of materials in a scene. Thus,
accurate estimation requires unmixing. Pixels are assumed to be mixtures of a
few materials, called endmembers. Unmixing involves estimating all or some of:
the number of endmembers, their spectral signatures, and their abundances at
each pixel. Unmixing is a challenging, ill-posed inverse problem because of
model inaccuracies, observation noise, environmental conditions, endmember
variability, and data set size. Researchers have devised and investigated many
models searching for robust, stable, tractable, and accurate unmixing
algorithms. This paper presents an overview of unmixing methods from the time
of Keshava and Mustard's unmixing tutorial [1] to the present. Mixing models
are first discussed. Signal-subspace, geometrical, statistical, sparsity-based,
and spatial-contextual unmixing algorithms are described. Mathematical problems
and potential solutions are described. Algorithm characteristics are
illustrated experimentally.Comment: This work has been accepted for publication in IEEE Journal of

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
Dual-Stage Approach Toward Hyperspectral Image Super-Resolution
Hyperspectral image produces high spectral resolution at the sacrifice of
spatial resolution. Without reducing the spectral resolution, improving the
resolution in the spatial domain is a very challenging problem. Motivated by
the discovery that hyperspectral image exhibits high similarity between
adjacent bands in a large spectral range, in this paper, we explore a new
structure for hyperspectral image super-resolution (DualSR), leading to a
dual-stage design, i.e., coarse stage and fine stage. In coarse stage, five
bands with high similarity in a certain spectral range are divided into three
groups, and the current band is guided to study the potential knowledge. Under
the action of alternative spectral fusion mechanism, the coarse SR image is
super-resolved in band-by-band. In order to build model from a global
perspective, an enhanced back-projection method via spectral angle constraint
is developed in fine stage to learn the content of spatial-spectral
consistency, dramatically improving the performance gain. Extensive experiments
demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed coarse stage and fine stage.
Besides, our network produces state-of-the-art results against existing works
in terms of spatial reconstruction and spectral fidelity
