BAND REDUCTION FOR TARGET DETECTION IN HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGES

Özet

Öz Due to the high spectral resolution, hyperspectral images need large data storage and processing time. Indeed, its high dimensional structure requires high computational complexity, especially for target detection. In order to overcome these problems, band reduction methods have been proposed. In this paper, we compare PCA and SNR-based band reduction methods to improve target detection performance in hyperspectral images. Experimental results show that band reduction methods not only reduce processing time, but also increase accuracy rate.
