The proposed fusion method, called Cumulative Separation-Based (CSB) method, is embedded into our Context-Dependent Fusion for Multiple Algorithms(CDF-MA) framework. The CDF-MA is motivated by the fact that the relative performance of different algorithms can vary significantly depending on the type of the different targets and other environmental conditions. Results on real world HI data show that the proposed method can identify meaningful and coherent clusters and that different expert algorithms can be identified for the different contexts. Our initial experiments have also indicated that the proposed method outperforms all individual algorithms and the global weighted average fusion method.","PeriodicalId":242447,"journal":{"name":"2009 First Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing","volume":"25 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114389540","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}

There are many ways in which the estimated eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the covariance matrix are used. Further steps in the analysis or model building for hyperspectral images are often dependent on those estimated quantities. It is therefore important to know how precisely the eigenvalues and eigenvectors are estimated, and how the precision depends on the sampling scheme, the sample size, and the covariance structure of the data. This issue is especially relevant for applications such as difficult target detection, where the precision of further steps in the algorithm may depend on the reliable knowledge of the estimated eigenvalues and eigenvectors. The sampling properties of eigenvalues and eigenvectors are known to some extent in statistical literature (mostly in the form of asymptotic results for large sample sizes). Unfortunately, those results usually do not apply in the context of hyperspectral images. In this paper, we investigate the sampling properties of eigenvalues and eigenvectors under three scenarios. The first two scenarios consider the type of sampling traditionally used in statistics, and the third scenario considers the variability due to image noise, which is more appropriate for hyperspectral imaging applications. For all three scenarios, we show the precision associated with the estimated eigenvalues and eigenvectors.","PeriodicalId":242447,"journal":{"name":"2009 First Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing","volume":"01 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127388275","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 the proposed approach, border training patterns which are close to the separating hyperplane, are obtained in two consecutive steps and considered as final training set. In the first step, clustering is performed to the full initial training data of each class. Then, cluster centers of each class are taken as the reduced size training data and forwarded to the second step. In the second step, this reduced size training data is used in the training of SVM and cluster centers which are obtained as support vectors at this step are regarded to be located close to the hyperplane border. Finally, cluster centers which are found as support vectors and original training samples contained in these clusters only are assigned as border training patterns. Experimental results are presented to show that the proposed approach improves SVM classification accuracy.","PeriodicalId":242447,"journal":{"name":"2009 First Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133553020","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}

This study addresses these issues and defines spectral features sensitive to bitumen and water content using wavelet analysis. A reliable model is then established to predict bitumen content based on spectral indices that minimize the influence of these factors.","PeriodicalId":242447,"journal":{"name":"2009 First Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131927874","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}

To help accomplish this, FTIR spectrometer measurements were made on a set of known targets over a period of three days in order to assess the precision and repeatability of thermal IR spectral emissivity measurements of the effects of view direction and surface roughness. These measurements are intended to provide validation data for the model and advance our capability to make precise measurements of emissivity in the field. Two types of rock targets, each with three roughness classes and at three view nadir angles were measured over three consecutive days. The results within days were very consistent. Emissivity for the 60 degree view was shifted downward: a sensitivity analysis was conducted to explain this and other variations and is discussed in this paper. The spectra for the large rock size class tended to be lower than targets with smaller rocks. Preliminary modeling results will be presented.","PeriodicalId":242447,"journal":{"name":"2009 First Workshop on Hyperspectral Image and Signal Processing: Evolution in Remote Sensing","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133298364","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}

Spectral reflectance data and agronomic data like biomass, plant height, N-uptake and LAI were collected at different phenological stages. In the second part of the study a spectral and agronomic library was set up. For this purpose, spectral reflectance was related to agronomic parameters.
