Attraction-Repulsion Model-Based Subpixel Mapping of Multi-/Hyperspectral Imagery

摘要

This paper presents a new subpixel mapping method based on subpixel attraction-repulsion. The proposed method is formulated as an optimization problem with respect to attraction-repulsion among subpixels and is used to reconstruct a finer spatial resolution image from a lower resolution one. A comprehensive experiment is conducted to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method, by comparing it with the other three existing subpixel mapping methods, i.e., linear optimization, pixel swapping and spatial attraction model methods. In the experiment, both a synthetic image with known fractional abundances and an EO-1 Hyperion hyperspectral image of Shanghai were used to evaluate performances of the subpixel mapping methods. The experimental result shows that by using spatial dependence with attraction between the same types of ground objects and repulsion between different types of these objects, the proposed subpixel mapping method achieves a better performance on subpixel mapping than the other three methods.
