In this brief proceeding we provide a physically based approach for separation of crop types using multiangle hyperspectral data. We use the radiative transfer theory of spectral invariants which allows for the parameterization of the canopy reflectance into two spectrally invariant and structurally varying parameters — recollision and escape probabilities. The spectral invariant parameters are retrieved from the CHRIS/PROBA multiangle hyperspectral sensor. We present the spectral invariant parameters in spectral invariant space. The horizontal axis provides information about macro scale features such as plant shape and size as well as ground cover. The vertical axis provides information about microscale features such as leaf density as well as portion of sunlit to shaded leaves. These features allow for the natural separation of crops. In addition we illustrate the potential for further separation of crop types based on angular information. Results suggest that multiangle information is important for canopies with similar structural features in the nadir direction.","PeriodicalId":193944,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127724893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, this context information is not used in Euclidean vector quantization. — In this contribution we propose a methodology for extending gradient based vector quantization approaches utilizing divergences as dissimilarity measure instead of the Euclidean distance for positive measures. Divergences are specifically designed to judge the dissimilarities between positive measures and have frequently an underlying physical meaning. We present in the paper the mathematical foundation for plugging divergences into vector quantization schemes and their adaptation rules. Thereafter, we demonstrate the ability of this methodology for the self-organizing map as widely ranged vector quantizer, applying it for topographic data clustering of a hyperspectral AVIRIS image cube taken from a lunar crater volcanic field.","PeriodicalId":193944,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126577082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike our previous detection method, which was based on manual control of threshold, we investigate here the possibility of a fully automated methodology based on blind source separation to analyzing years of Cassini near-infrared cloud images. Since the spectral signature of Titan clouds are diverse and not known a priori, the choice of a blind source separation seems to be appropriate. Preliminary results show that Titan's cloud detection is possible using the recent implementation of a Bayesian source separation method.","PeriodicalId":193944,"journal":{"name":"2010 2nd Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133133171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, in concurrence with Schaum, for pixels in transition zones between two neighboring stationary areas, it is crucial to choose or construct a covariance matrix which is appropriate for that particular area.

This algorithm is based on the assumption that the spectral signatures of pixels in the same class lie in a low-dimensional subspace and thus a test sample can be represented by a sparse linear combination of the training samples. The sparse representation is recovered by solving a constrained optimization and it directly determines the class label of the test sample. In addition to the constraints on sparsity and reconstruction accuracy, the smoothness of hyperspectral images across neighboring pixels is also exploited by forcing the Laplacian of the reconstructed image to be minimum in the optimization process. Various sparse recovery techniques are applied to solve the optimization problem and their performances are compared against the widely used Support Vector Machine classifier.
