The proposed Autoencoder Graph Ensemble Model (AEGEM) is an innovative technique in remote sensing that utilizes spectral unmixing to analyze hyperspectral images and identify endmembers and estimate abundance maps. The model leverages an elliptical kernel to measure spectral distances, generating an adjacency matrix within the elliptical neighborhood, which is then used to construct an elliptical graph. This graph is processed by a Graph Convolutional Network to refine abundance maps. An ensemble decision-making process determines the best abundance maps based on the root mean square error metric. The AEGEM outperforms baseline algorithms on benchmark datasets such as Samson, Jasper, and Urban.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The AEGEM model is designed to extract endmembers and fractional abundance maps from hyperspectral images. It uses an elliptical kernel to measure spectral distances and generates an adjacency matrix within the elliptical neighborhood. The model then constructs an elliptical graph and processes it using a Graph Convolutional Network to refine abundance maps. Finally, an ensemble decision-making process determines the best abundance maps based on the root mean square error metric. The AEGEM outperforms previous results for various endmembers and abundance maps.
