- Hyperspectral imagery framework for unmixing and dimensionality estimationPublication . Nascimento, Jose; Bioucas-Dias, José M.In hyperspectral imagery a pixel typically consists mixture of spectral signatures of reference substances, also called endmembers. Linear spectral mixture analysis, or linear unmixing, aims at estimating the number of endmembers, their spectral signatures, and their abundance fractions. This paper proposes a framework for hyperpsectral unmixing. A blind method (SISAL) is used for the estimation of the unknown endmember signature and their abundance fractions. This method solve a non-convex problem by a sequence of augmented Lagrangian optimizations, where the positivity constraints, forcing the spectral vectors to belong to the convex hull of the endmember signatures, are replaced by soft constraints. The proposed framework simultaneously estimates the number of endmembers present in the hyperspectral image by an algorithm based on the minimum description length (MDL) principle. Experimental results on both synthetic and real hyperspectral data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
- Hyperspectral subspace identificationPublication . Bioucas-Dias, José M.; Nascimento, JoseSignal subspace identification is a crucial first step in many hyperspectral processing algorithms such as target detection, change detection, classification, and unmixing. The identification of this subspace enables a correct dimensionality reduction, yielding gains in algorithm performance and complexity and in data storage. This paper introduces a new minimum mean square error-based approach to infer the signal subspace in hyperspectral imagery. The method, which is termed hyperspectral signal identification by minimum error, is eigen decomposition based, unsupervised, and fully automatic (i.e., it does not depend on any tuning parameters). It first estimates the signal and noise correlation matrices and then selects the subset of eigenvalues that best represents the signal subspace in the least squared error sense. State-of-the-art performance of the proposed method is illustrated by using simulated and real hyperspectral images.

- Hyperspectral unmixing with simultaneous dimensionality estimationPublication . Nascimento, Jose; Bioucas-Dias, José M.This paper is an elaboration of the simplex identification via split augmented Lagrangian (SISAL) algorithm (Bioucas-Dias, 2009) to blindly unmix hyperspectral data. SISAL is a linear hyperspectral unmixing method of the minimum volume class. This method solve a non-convex problem by a sequence of augmented Lagrangian optimizations, where the positivity constraints, forcing the spectral vectors to belong to the convex hull of the endmember signatures, are replaced by soft constraints. With respect to SISAL, we introduce a dimensionality estimation method based on the minimum description length (MDL) principle. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is illustrated with simulated and real data.
