Abstract

Boundary detection in hyperspectral image (HSI) is a challenging task due to high data dimensionality and the that is distributed over the spectral bands. For this reason, there is a dearth of research on boundary detection in HSI. In this paper, we propose a spectral-spatial feature based statistical co-occurrence method for this task. We adopt probability density function (PDF) to estimate the co-occurrence of features at neighboring pixel pairs. Such cooccurrence is rare at the boundary and repeated within a region. To fully explore the material information embedded in HSI, joint spectral-spatial features are extracted at each pixel. The PDF values are then used to construct an affinity matrix for all pixels. After that, a spectral clustering algorithm is applied on the affinity matrix to produce boundaries. Our algorithm is evaluated on a dataset of real-world HSIs and compared with two alternative approaches. The results show that the proposed method is very effective in exploring object boundaries from HSI images.
