Superpixel construction for hyperspectral unmixing [pdf]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Spectral unmixing aims to determine the component materials and their associated abundances from mixed pixels in a hyperspectral image. Instead of performing unmixing independently on each pixel, investigating spatial and spectral correlations among pixels can be beneficial to enhance the unmixing performance. However linking pixels across an entire image for such a purpose can be computationally cumbersome and physically unreasonable. In order to address this issue, we propose to construct superpixels for hyperspectral data unmixing. Using an SLIC-based (Simple Linear Iterative Clustering) superpixel constructing process, adjacent pixels are clustered into several blocks with similar spectral signatures. After this preprocessing, unmixing is then performed with a graph-based total variation regularization to benefit from the heterogeneity within each superpixel. Experimental results on synthetic data and real hyperspectral data illustrate advantages of the proposed scheme.
