A Geographic Information-Assisted Temporal Mixture Analysis for Addressing the Issue of Endmember Class and Endmember Spectra Variability [PDF]
Spectral mixture analysis (SMA) is a common approach for parameterizing biophysical fractions of urban environment and widely applied in many fields. For successful SMA, the selection of endmember class and corresponding spectra has been assumed as the ...

Unsupervised Unmixing of Hyperspectral Images Accounting for Endmember Variability [PDF]
This paper presents an unsupervised Bayesian algorithm for hyperspectral image unmixing accounting for endmember variability. The pixels are modeled by a linear combination of endmembers weighted by their corresponding abundances. However, the endmembers are assumed random to take into account their variability in the image.

Hyperspectral Unmixing With Endmember Variability via Alternating Angle Minimization [PDF]
In hyperspectral unmixing applications, one typically assumes that a single spectrum exists for every endmember. In many scenarios, this is not the case, and one requires a set or a distribution of spectra to represent an endmember or class. This inherent spectral variability can pose severe difficulties in classical unmixing approaches. In this paper,

Quadratic Clustering-Based Simplex Volume Maximization for Hyperspectral Endmember Extraction
The existence of intra-class spectral variability caused by differential scene components and illumination conditions limits the improvement of endmember extraction accuracy, as most endmember extraction algorithms directly find pixels in the ...

The AMEE-PPI Method to Extract Typical Outcrop Endmembers from GF-5 Hyperspectral Images [PDF]
Mixed pixels remain a central obstacle to reliable endmember extraction from hyperspectral imagery. We present AMEE–PPI, a hybrid method that embeds the Pure Pixel Index (PPI) within morphological structuring elements and propagates spectral purity via ...

A Hierarchical Sparsity Unmixing Method to Address Endmember Variability in Hyperspectral Image [PDF]
With a low spectral resolution hyperspectral sensor, the signal recorded from a given pixel against the complex background is a mixture of spectral contents. To improve the accuracy of classification and subpixel object detection, hyperspectral unmixing (

A Gaussian Mixture Model Representation of Endmember Variability in Hyperspectral Unmixing
Hyperspectral unmixing while considering endmember variability is usually performed by the normal compositional model (NCM), where the endmembers for each pixel are assumed to be sampled from unimodal Gaussian distributions. However, in real applications, the distribution of a material is often not Gaussian.

Reducing the Effect of the Endmembers’ Spectral Variability by Selecting the Optimal Spectral Bands [PDF]
Variable environmental conditions cause different spectral responses of scene endmembers. Ignoring these variations affects the accuracy of fractional abundances obtained from linear spectral unmixing. On the other hand, the correlation between the bands
