Abstract

Hyperspectral imagery is one of the research areas in the field of remote sensing. Hyperspectral sensors record reflectance of object or material or region across the electromagnetic spectrum. Mineral identification is an urban application in the field of remote sensing of Hyperspectral data. Challenges with the hyperspectral data include high dimensionality and size of the hyperspectral data. Principle component analysis (PCA) is used to reduce the dimension of data by band selection approach. Unsupervised classification technique is one of the hot research topics. Due to the unavailability of ground truth data, unsupervised algorithm is used to classify the minerals present in the remotely sensed hyperspectral data. K-means is unsupervised clustering algorithm used to classify the mineral and then further SVM is used to check the classification accuracy. K-means is applied to end member data only. SVM used k-means result as a labelled data and classify another set of dataset.
