Hyperspectral unmixing has attracted considerable attentions in recent years and some promising algorithms have been developed. In this paper, collaborative representation-based (CRU) for hyperspectral images is proposed. Different from imposing the sparseness constraint on training samples sparse representation, representation emphasizes collaboration of samples. Furthermore, its closed form s...

This paper introduces a new hyperspectral unmixing method called Dependent Component Analysis (DECA). This method decomposes a hyperspectral image into a collection of reflectance (or radiance) spectra of the materials present in the scene (endmember signatures) and the corresponding abundance fractions at each pixel. DECA models the abundance fractions as mixtures of Dirichlet densities, thus ...

Recently, the sparse representation based classification methods have received particular attention in the classification of hyperspectral imagery. However, current sparse representation based classification models have not considered all the test pixels simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a hyperspectral classification method with spatial filtering and `2,1 norm (SFL) that can deal with ...

a r t i c l e i n f o The focus of the current study is to compare data fusion methods applied to sensors with medium-and high-spatial resolutions. Two documented methods are applied, the spatial and temporal adaptive reflectance fusion model (STARFM) and an unmixing-based method which proposes a Bayesian formulation to incorporate prior spectral information. Furthermore, the strengths of both ...

The Multiple Instance Hybrid Estimator for discriminative target characterization from imprecisely labeled hyperspectral data is presented. In many hyperspectral target detection problems, acquiring accurately labeled training data is difficult. Furthermore, each pixel containing target is likely to be a mixture of both target and non-target signatures (i.e., subpixel targets), making extractin...

Abstract—A very useful analysis approach for hyperspectral data has been linear unmixing which is a projection into a coordinate system where the coordinates are the constituent or endmember spectra of the scene. The most useful technique is to determine the spectra from the image. Once these spect...

Hyperspectral unmixing (HU) is a very useful and increasingly popular preprocessing step for a wide range of hyperspectral applications. However, the HU research has been constrained a lot by three factors: (a) the number of hyperspectral images (especially the ones with ground truths) are very limited; (b) the ground truths of most hyperspectral images are not shared on the web, which may caus...

Biochar soil amendment is globally recognized as an emerging approach to mitigate CO2 emissions and increase crop yield. Because the durability and changes of biochar may affect its long term functions, it is important to quantify biochar in soil after application. In this chapter, an automatic soil biochar estimation method is proposed by analysis of hyperspectral images captured by cameras th...
