CUI Bin’ge, ZHANG Jie, MA Yi, et al. High-resolution image-assisted endmember extraction of hyperspectral image[J]. Journal of Remote Sensing, 2014, 18(1): 192-205. DOI: 10.11834/jrs.20133067.
Existing endmember extraction algorithms are mainly based on the convex simplex hypothesis. However
the cover types in certain endmembers are not single
which will affect the unmixing accuracy of mixed pixels when performing abundance inversion. In this paper
we propose to determine the nature of the hyperspectral pixel based on the high-resolution remote sensing image. First
a spectral relatively homogeneous vector diagram of blocks is superimposed on the hyperspectral image after the highresolution image segmentation. Second
spatial relations analysis is performed to find the hyperspectral pixels that are within the blocks
which is called a quasi-endmember. Finally
endmember extraction is performed to find endmembers from the quasi-endmember set. The experimental results demonstrate that our approach can reduce the root mean square error of the extraction results by about 20%.
