Estimation of the Number of Endmembers in Hyperspectral Images Using Agglomerative Clustering

[EN] Many tasks in hyperspectral imaging, such as spectral unmixing and sub-pixel matching, require knowing how many substances or materials are present in the scene captured by a yperspectral image. In this paper, we present an algorithm that estimates the number of materials in the scene using agg...

In this paper, we present an algorithm that estimates the number of materials in the scene using agglomerative clustering. The algorithm is based on the assumption that a valid clustering of the image has one cluster for each different material. After reducing the dimensionality of the hyperspectral image, the proposed method obtains an initial clustering using K-means. In this stage, cluster densities are estimated using Independent Component Analysis. Based on the K-means result, a model-based agglomerative clustering is performed, which provides a hierarchy of clusterings. Finally, a validation algorithm selects a clustering of the hierarchy; the number of clusters it contains is the estimated number of materials. Besides estimating the number of endmembers, the proposed method can approximately obtain the endmember (or spectrum) of each material by computing the centroid of its corresponding cluster. We have tested the proposed method using several hyperspectral images. The results show that the proposed method obtains approximately the number of materials that these images contain.This work was supported by Spanish Administration (Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovacion y Universidades) and European Union (FEDER) under grant TEC2017-84743-P.MDPI AGEscuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería de TelecomunicaciónDepartamento de ComunicacionesInstituto Universitario de Telecomunicación y Aplicaciones MultimediaAGENCIA ESTATAL DE INVESTIGACIONEuropean Regional Development FundRepositorio Institucional de la Universitat Politècnica de València Riunet20202020-11-01journal articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501VoRhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://riunet.upv.es/handle/10251/176146reponame:RiuNet.
