Total Variation and Sparsity Regularized Decomposition Model With Union Dictionary for Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection

摘要

Anomaly detection in hyperspectral imagery has been an active topic among the remote sensing applications. It aims at identifying anomalous targets with different spectra from their surrounding background. Therefore, an effective detector should be able to distinguish the anomalies, especially for the weak ones, from the background and noise. In this article, we propose a novel method for hyperspectral anomaly detection based on total variation (TV) and sparsity regularized decomposition model. This model decomposes the hyperspectral imagery into three components: background, anomaly, and noise. In order to distinguish effectively these components, a union dictionary consisting of both background and potential anomalous atoms is utilized to represent the background and anomalies, respectively. Moreover, the TV and the sparsity-inducing regularizations are incorporated to facilitate the separation. Besides, we present a new strategy for constructing the union dictionary with the density peak-based clustering. The proposed detector is evaluated on both simulated and real hyperspectral data sets and the experimental results demonstrate its superiority compared with several traditional and state-of-the-art anomaly detectors.
