Fast algorithms for robust hyperspectral endmember extraction based on worst-case simplex volume maximization

Hyperspectral endmember extraction (EE) is to estimate endmember signatures (or material spectra) from the hyperspectral data of an unexplored area for analyzing the materials and their composition therein. However, the presence of noise in the data posts a serious problem for EE. Recently, robustne...

Zusammenfassung:Hyperspectral endmember extraction (EE) is to estimate endmember signatures (or material spectra) from the hyperspectral data of an unexplored area for analyzing the materials and their composition therein. However, the presence of noise in the data posts a serious problem for EE. Recently, robustness against noise has been taken into account in the design of EE algorithms. The robust maximum-volume simplex criterion [1] has been shown to yield performance improvement in the noisy scenario, but its real applicability is limited by its high implementation complexity. In this paper, we propose two fast algorithms to approximate this robust criterion [1], which turns out to deal with a set of partial max-min optimization problems in alternating manner and successive manner, respectively. Some Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate the superior computational efficiency and efficacy of the proposed robust algorithms in the noisy scenario over the robust algorithm in [1] and some benchmark EE algorithms.
