Hyperspectral images (HSIs) often contain pixels with mixed spectra, which makes it difficult to accurately separate the background signal from the anomaly target signal. To mitigate this problem, we present a method that applies spectral unmixing and structure sparse representation to accurately extract the pure background features and to establish a structured sparse representation model at a sub-pixel level by using the Archetypal Analysis (AA) scheme. Specifically, spectral unmixing with AA is used to unmix the spectral data to obtain representative background endmember signatures. Moreover the unmixing reconstruction error is utilized for the identification of the target. Structured sparse representation is also adopted for anomaly target detection by using the background endmember features from AA unmixing. Moreover, both the AA unmixing reconstruction error and the structured sparse representation reconstruction error are integrated together to enhance the anomaly target detection performance. The proposed method exploits background features at a sub-pixel level to improve the accuracy of anomaly target detection. Comparative experiments and analysis on public hyperspectral datasets show that the proposed algorithm potentially surpasses all the counterpart methods in anomaly target detection.

Anomaly detection aims to separate anomalous pixels from the background, and has become an important application of remotely sensed hyperspectral image processing. Anomaly detection methods based on low-rank and sparse representation (LRASR) can accurately detect anomalous pixels. However, with the significant volume increase of hyperspectral image repositories, such techniques consume a significant amount of time (mainly due to the massive amount of matrix computations involved). In this paper, we propose a novel distributed parallel algorithm (DPA) by redesigning key operators of LRASR in terms of MapReduce model to accelerate LRASR on cloud computing architectures. Independent computation operators are explored and executed in parallel on Spark. Specifically, we reconstitute the hyperspectral images in an appropriate format for efficient DPA processing, design the optimized storage strategy, and develop a pre-merge mechanism to reduce data transmission. Besides, a repartitioning policy is also proposed to improve DPA’s efficiency. Our experimental results demonstrate that the newly developed DPA achieves very high speedups when accelerating LRASR, in addition to maintaining similar accuracies. Moreover, our proposed DPA is shown to be scalable with the number of computing nodes and capable of processing big hyperspectral images involving massive amounts of data.

Hyperspectral sensors are passive instruments that record reflected electromagnetic radiation in tens or hundreds of narrow and consecutive spectral bands. In the last two decades, the availability of hyperspectral data has sharply increased, propelling the development of a plethora of hyperspectral classification and target detection algorithms. Anomaly detection methods in hyperspectral images refer to a class of target detection methods that do not require any a-priori knowledge about a hyperspectral scene or target spectrum. They are unsupervised learning techniques that automatically discover rare features on hyperspectral images. This review paper is organized into two parts: part A provides a bibliographic analysis of hyperspectral image processing for anomaly detection in remote sensing applications. Development of the subject field is discussed, and key authors and journals are highlighted. In part B an overview of the topic is presented, starting from the mathematical framework for anomaly detection. The anomaly detection methods were generally categorized as techniques that implement structured or unstructured background models and then organized into appropriate sub-categories. Specific anomaly detection methods are presented with corresponding detection statistics, and their properties are discussed. This paper represents the first review regarding hyperspectral image processing for anomaly detection in remote sensing applications.

At present, small dim moving target detection in hyperspectral imagery sequences is mainly based on anomaly detection (AD). However, most conventional detection algorithms only utilize the spatial spectral information and rarely employ the temporal spectral information. Besides, multiple targets in complex motion situations, such as multiple targets at different velocities and dense targets on the same trajectory, are still challenges for moving target detection. To address these problems, we propose a novel constrained sparse representation-based spatio-temporal anomaly detection algorithm that extends AD from the spatial domain to the spatio-temporal domain. Our algorithm includes a spatial detector and a temporal detector, which play different roles in moving target detection. The former can suppress moving background regions, and the latter can suppress non-homogeneous background and stationary objects. Two temporal background purification procedures maintain the effectiveness of the temporal detector for multiple targets in complex motion situations. Moreover, the smoothing and fusion of the spatial and temporal detection maps can adequately suppress background clutter and false alarms on the maps. Experiments conducted on a real dataset and a synthetic dataset show that the proposed algorithm can accurately detect multiple targets with different velocities and dense targets with the same trajectory and outperforms other state-of-the-art algorithms in high-noise scenarios.
