Abstract: Fresh fruits and vegetables are invaluable for human health, but their quality deteriorates before reaching consumers due to ongoing biochemical processes and compositional changes. The current lack of any objective indices for defining “freshness” of fruits or vegetables limits… Read More

SPICE IS NOW AVAILABLE IN ANACONDA!
Sparsity Promoting Iterated Constrained Endmemebers (SPICE) is now installable with conda! SPICE is an algorithm for finding hyperspectral endmembers and corresponding proportions for a scene. The Python implementation can now be installed easily from PyPI or through the conda-forge. Installation… Read More
Spectral Variability in Hyperspectral Data Unmixing: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: The spectral signatures of the materials contained in hyperspectral images (HI), also called endmembers (EM), can be significantly affected by variations in atmospheric, illumination or environmental conditions typically occurring within an HI. Traditional spectral unmixing (SU) algorithms neglect the… Read More
Target Concept Learning From Ambiguously Labeled Data
Abstract: The multiple instance learning problem addresses the case where training data comes with label ambiguity, i.e., the learner has access only to inaccurately labeled data. For example, in target detection from remotely sensed hyperspectral imagery, targets are usually sub-pixel… Read More
Multiple Instance Hybrid Estimator for Hyperspectral Target Characterization and Sub-pixel Target Detection
Abstract: The Multiple Instance Hybrid Estimator for discriminative target characterization from imprecisely labeled hyperspectral data is presented. In many hyperspectral target detection problems, acquiring accurately labeled training data is difficult. Furthermore, each pixel containing target is likely to be a… Read More
Hyperspectral Unmixing with Endmember Variability using Semi-supervised Partial Membership Latent Dirichlet Allocation
Abstract: A semi-supervised Partial Membership Latent Dirichlet Allocation approach is developed for hyperspectral unmixing and endmember estimation while accounting for spectral variability and spatial information. Partial Membership Latent Dirichlet Allocation is an effective approach for spectral unmixing while representing spectral… Read More
Classification Label Map for MUUFL Gulfport Released!
We are excited to announce that we have released a classification label map for the MUUFL Gulfport co-registered hyperspectral and Lidar Campus 1 image . The MUUFL Gulfport data set was collected in November 2010 over the campus of the… Read More
Map-guided Hyperspectral Image Superpixel Segmentation Using Proportion Maps
Abstract: A map-guided superpixel segmentation method for hyperspectral imagery is developed and introduced. The proposed approach develops a hyperspectral-appropriate version of the SLIC superpixel segmentation algorithm, leverages map information to guide segmentation, and incorporates the semi-supervised Partial Membership Latent Dirichlet… Read More
Multiple Instance Hybrid Estimator for Learning Target Signatures
Abstract: Signature-based detectors for hyperspectral target detection rely on knowing the specific target signature in advance. However, target signature are often difficult or impossible to obtain. Furthermore, common methods for obtaining target signatures, such as from laboratory measurements or manual… Read More
Map-guided Hyperspectral Image Superpixel Segmentation Using Semi-supervised Partial Membership Latent Dirichlet Allocation
Abstract: Many superpixel segmentation algorithms which are suitable for the regular color images like images with three channels: red, green and blue (RGB images) have been developed in the literature. However, because of the high dimensionality of hyperspectral imagery, these… Read More
