Hyperspectral Unmixing with Endmember Variability using Partial Membership Latent Dirichlet Allocation
The application of Partial Membership Latent Dirichlet Allocation(PM-LDA) for
hyperspectral endmember estimation and spectral unmixing is presented. PM-LDA
provides a model for a hyperspectral image analysis that accounts for spectral
variability and incorporates spatial information through the use of
superpixel-based 'documents.' In our application of PM-LDA, we employ the
Normal Compositional Model in which endmembers are represented as Normal
distributions to account for spectral variability and proportion vectors are
modeled as random variables governed by a Dirichlet distribution. The use of
the Dirichlet distribution enforces positivity and sum-to-one constraints on
the proportion values. Algorithm results on real hyperspectral data indicate
that PM-LDA produces endmember distributions that represent the ground truth
classes and their associated variability
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
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
Further results on dissimilarity spaces for hyperspectral images RF-CBIR
Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) systems are powerful search tools in
image databases that have been little applied to hyperspectral images.
Relevance feedback (RF) is an iterative process that uses machine learning
techniques and user's feedback to improve the CBIR systems performance. We
pursued to expand previous research in hyperspectral CBIR systems built on
dissimilarity functions defined either on spectral and spatial features
extracted by spectral unmixing techniques, or on dictionaries extracted by
dictionary-based compressors. These dissimilarity functions were not suitable
for direct application in common machine learning techniques. We propose to use
a RF general approach based on dissimilarity spaces which is more appropriate
for the application of machine learning algorithms to the hyperspectral
RF-CBIR. We validate the proposed RF method for hyperspectral CBIR systems over
a real hyperspectral dataset.Comment: In Pattern Recognition Letters (2013
