Resümee

The low spatial resolution of hyperspectral images always leads to the “mixed pixel” problem, where multiple objects exist in one pixel. The unmixing of mixed pixels is vital to the quantitative application of hyperspectral remote sensing. Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) is a hot spot in hyperspectral unmixing research because of its non-negative constraints and capability to process high-dimensional data. However, NMF-based unmixing algorithms are ineffective because of universality, local minima, and other restrictions; additional specific features of hyperspectral images should be explored. Hyperspectral remote sensing images have significant correlation features, such as spatial and spectral correlation. The present study aims to improve the unmixing effect by adopting correlation features of hyperspectral remote sensing images. An NMF-based hyperspectral unmixing algorithm with spatial and spectral correlation analyses, named NMF hyperspectral unmixing algorithm based on spatial and spectral correlation (NMFSSC), is proposed to address the universality and local minima problems of NMF. The proposed method adopts the correlation features of hyperspectral data in the unmixing process as the spatial correlation constraint of building adjacent pixels. The Markov Random Field (MRF) model and spectral correlation (piecewise smoothness) are used as constraints in building adjacent bands with complexity mapping technique. In this algorithm, the spatial correlation constraint of adjacent pixels is processed as the parallel and alternate step of the standard NMF object function. The spectral correlation of the adjacent bands is built as a new inner constraint of the standard function. During each iteration of the unmixing procedure, the distribution error of endmembers can be revised by the MRF-based spatial correlation constraint. The local minima problem can be revised by the complexity mapping constraint, thus potentially improving overall unmixing precision. Actual hyperspectral data with high and low spatial correlation are adopted in the experiments. Three algorithms, namely, Minimum Volume Constrained Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (MVCNMF), Piecewise Smoothness NMF with Sparseness Constraints (PSNMFSC), and NMF with Alternating Projected Subgradients (APSNMF), are used with NMFSSC in the experiments. Results indicate that the proposed NMFSSC algorithm can improve unmixing precision, especially when dealing with high-spatial-correlation test data. The unmixing precision of NMFSSC is lower on the low-spatial-correlation data than on the high-spatial-correlation set, but the method still shows certain advantages over the three reference algorithms. Therefore, NMFSSC has a wide-ranging application scope. In summary, the proposed algorithm can increase the unmixing accuracy of most actual hyperspectral remote sensing data, especially those with high spatial correlation. The local minima and universality problems of the standard NMF can be significantly addressed by adopting the MRF model and complexity mapping technique. However, the precision of the proposed algorithm can deteriorate as the correlation feature of hyperspectral data becomes increasingly vague. If the spatial and spectral correlations of the data are low, then the precision of the algorithm can be reduced. The next step is to widen the application scope of the unmixing algorithm and stabilize its performance.
