Hyperspectral Image Compression and Target Detection Using Nonlinear Principal Component Analysis

摘要

The widely used principal component analysis (PCA) is implemented in nonlinear by an auto-associative neural network. Compared to other nonlinear versions, such as kernel PCA, such a nonlinear PCA has explicit encoding and decoding processes, and the data can be transformed back to the original space. Its data compression performance is similar to that of PCA, but data analysis performance such as target detection is much better. To expedite its training process, graphics computing unit (GPU)-based parallel computing is applied.
