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

Spectral Unmixing with Multiple Dictionaries
Spectral unmixing aims at recovering the spectral signatures of materials,
called endmembers, mixed in a hyperspectral or multispectral image, along with
their abundances. A typical assumption is that the image contains one pure
pixel per endmember, in which case spectral unmixing reduces to identifying
these pixels. Many fully automated methods have been proposed in recent years,
but little work has been done to allow users to select areas where pure pixels
are present manually or using a segmentation algorithm. Additionally, in a
non-blind approach, several spectral libraries may be available rather than a
single one, with a fixed number (or an upper or lower bound) of endmembers to
chose from each. In this paper, we propose a multiple-dictionary constrained
low-rank matrix approximation model that address these two problems. We propose
an algorithm to compute this model, dubbed M2PALS, and its performance is
discussed on both synthetic and real hyperspectral images
Self-Dictionary Sparse Regression for Hyperspectral Unmixing: Greedy Pursuit and Pure Pixel Search are Related
This paper considers a recently emerged hyperspectral unmixing formulation
based on sparse regression of a self-dictionary multiple measurement vector
(SD-MMV) model, wherein the measured hyperspectral pixels are used as the
dictionary. Operating under the pure pixel assumption, this SD-MMV formalism is
special in that it allows simultaneous identification of the endmember spectral
signatures and the number of endmembers. Previous SD-MMV studies mainly focus
on convex relaxations. In this study, we explore the alternative of greedy
pursuit, which generally provides efficient and simple algorithms. In
particular, we design a greedy SD-MMV algorithm using simultaneous orthogonal
matching pursuit. Intriguingly, the proposed greedy algorithm is shown to be
closely related to some existing pure pixel search algorithms, especially, the
successive projection algorithm (SPA). Thus, a link between SD-MMV and pure
pixel search is revealed. We then perform exact recovery analyses, and prove
that the proposed greedy algorithm is robust to noise---including its
identification of the (unknown) number of endmembers---under a sufficiently low
noise level. The identification performance of the proposed greedy algorithm is
demonstrated through both synthetic and real-data experiments
Dictionary-based Tensor Canonical Polyadic Decomposition
To ensure interpretability of extracted sources in tensor decomposition, we
introduce in this paper a dictionary-based tensor canonical polyadic
decomposition which enforces one factor to belong exactly to a known
dictionary. A new formulation of sparse coding is proposed which enables high
dimensional tensors dictionary-based canonical polyadic decomposition. The
benefits of using a dictionary in tensor decomposition models are explored both
in terms of parameter identifiability and estimation accuracy. Performances of
the proposed algorithms are evaluated on the decomposition of simulated data
and the unmixing of hyperspectral images
A REVIEW ON MULTIPLE-FEATURE-BASED ADAPTIVE SPARSE REPRESENTATION (MFASR) AND OTHER CLASSIFICATION TYPES
A new technique Multiple-feature-based adaptive sparse representation (MFASR) has been demonstrated for Hyperspectral Images (HSI's) classification. This method involves mainly in four steps at the various stages. The spectral and spatial information reflected from the original Hyperspectral Images with four various features. A shape adaptive (SA) spatial region is obtained in each pixel region at the second step. The algorithm namely sparse representation has applied to get the coefficients of sparse for each shape adaptive region in the form of matrix with multiple features. For each test pixel, the class label is determined with the help of obtained coefficients. The performances of MFASR have much better classification results than other classifiers in the terms of quantitative and qualitative percentage of results. This MFASR will make benefit of strong correlations that are obtained from different extracted features and this make use of effective features and effective adaptive sparse representation. Thus, the very high classification performance was achieved through this MFASR technique
