Recently, land cover change detection has become a research focus of remote sensing. To obtain the change information from remote sensing images at fine spatial and temporal resolutions, subpixel change detection is widely studied and applied. In this paper, a new subpixel change detection method based on radial basis function (RBF) for remote sensing images is proposed, in which the abundance image difference measure (AIDM) is designed and utilized to enhance the subpixel mapping (SPM) by borrowing the fine spatial distribution of the fine spatial resolution image to decrease the influence of the spectral unmixing error. First, the fine and coarse spatial resolution images are used to develop subpixel change detection. Second, linear spectral mixing modeling and the degradation procedure are conducted on the coarse and fine spatial resolution image to produce two temporal abundance images, respectively. Then, the designed AIDM is utilized to enhance the RBF-based SPM by comparing the two temporal abundance images. At last, the proposed RBF-AIDM method is applied for SPM and subpixel change detection. The synthetic images based on Landsat-7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) and real case images based on two temporal Landsat-8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) images and one Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) image are undertaken to validate the proposed method. The experimental results indicate that the proposed method can sufficiently decrease the influence of the spectral unmixing error and improve the subpixel change detection results.

Multitemporal Remote Sensing

In order to improve the change detection accuracy of multitemporal high spatial resolution remote-sensing (HSRRS) images, a change detection method of multitemporal remote-sensing images based on saliency detection and spatial intuitionistic fuzzy C-means (SIFCM) clustering is proposed. Firstly, the cluster-based saliency cue method is used to obtain the saliency maps of two temporal remote-sensing images; then, the saliency difference is obtained by subtracting the saliency maps of two temporal remote-sensing images; finally, the SIFCM clustering algorithm is used to classify the saliency difference image to obtain the change regions and unchange regions. Two data sets of multitemporal high spatial resolution remote-sensing images are selected as the experimental data. The detection accuracy of the proposed method is 96.17% and 97.89%. The results show that the proposed method is a feasible and better performance multitemporal remote-sensing image change detection method.

Mixed Pixels

Due to the high temporal repetition rates, median/low spatial resolution remote sensing images are the main data source of change detection (CD). It is worth noting that they contain a large number of mixed pixels, which makes adequately capturing the details in the resulting thematic map challenging. The spectral unmixing (SU) method is a potential solution to this problem, as it decomposes mixed pixels into a set of fractions of the land covers. However, there are accumulated errors in the fractional difference images, which lead to a poor change detection results. Meanwhile, the spectra variation of the endmember and the heterogeneity of the land cover materials cannot be fully considered in the traditional framework. In order to solve this problem, a novel change detection approach with image stacking and dividing based on spectral unmixing while considering the variability of endmembers (CD_SDSUVE) was proposed in this paper. Firstly, the remote sensing images at different times were stacked into a unified framework. After that, several patch images were produced by dividing the stacked images so that the similar endmembers according to each land cover can be completely extracted and compared. Finally, the multiple endmember spectral mixture analysis (MESMA) is performed, and the abundant images were combined to produce the entire change detection thematic map. This proposed algorithm was implemented and compared to four relevant state-of-the-art methods on three experimental data, whereby the results confirmed that it effectively improved the accuracy. In the simulated data, the overall accuracy (OA) and Kappa coefficient values were 99.61% and 0.99. In the two real data, the maximum of OA were acquired with 93.26% and 80.85%, which gained 14.88% and 13.42% over the worst results at most. Meanwhile, the Kappa coefficient value was consistent with the OA.
