Xu Han, Li Xiaojuan. Endmemeber extraction for hyperspectral image based on normalized cut and watershed transformation[J]. Journal of Image and Graphics, 2012, 17(7): 880-885. DOI: 10.11834/jig.20120719.
As spatial information plays an important role in remote sensing analysis
more and more researchers pay focus on spectral-spatial endmember extraction. An improved endmember extraction method with a spatial preprocessing module
which uses watershed with normalized cuts to avoid over-segmentation and producing accurate results from spectral mixture analysis
is proposed in this paper. According to the experiment in this study the spatial-spectral endmember extraction method can generate a more accurate pixel un-mixing results during image segmentation.
