Study of Spectral Response Characteristics of Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus) to Particulate Matters Based on Hyper-Spectral Technique

Haze is mainly caused by the suspended particulate matters in the air,of which the particulate matters pollution harms leaf vegetables.In this paper,oilseed rapes at four different growing periods were investigated in a simulated particulate pollution environment.In combination of hyper-spectral technology and micro examination,the response of hyper-spectral characteristics of the leaf to particulate matters was investigated in-depth.The hyperspectral,chlorophyll content,net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance of leaf were obtained.The deposition and adsorption of particulate matters on the leaf were observed by Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope(ESEM).Normalized difference vegetation index(NDVI),modified red edge normalized(mNDVI705)and modified red edge simple ratio index(mSR705)were selected as characteristic parameters and the range of 510 nm~620 nm as the sensitive band.16 methods were used to establish the physiological information inversion model.The main results were as follows:Under the influence of particulate matters,the spectral reflectance decreased as a whole.With the increase of leaf age,the phenomenon of blue shift aggravated.The amplitude of yellow and blue edge decreased with overall decreasing vegetation indices.The furrows and irregular band protrusions in leaves were favorable for keeping particulate matters.With longer affecting time and more deposition of particle matters on the leaf,the stomatal opening became smaller.After comparing,principal component regression(PCR)+multiple scatter correction(MSC)+second derivative(SD)+Savitzky-Golay smooth(SG),and partial least square(PLS)+multiple scatter correction(MSC)+first derivative(FD)+Savitzky-Golay smooth(SG)were determined the best method to establish the inversion model of chlorophyll content and net photosynthetic rate respectively.This study may bring novel ideas for the diagnosis and analysis of the physiological response of leaf vegetables under particulate matters pollution using hyper-spectral technology.

The recognition of ocean red tide with hyper-spectral-image based on EMD

A new technique is introduced in this paper regarding red tide recognition with remotely sensed hyper-spectral images based on empirical mode decomposition （EMD）, from an artificial red tide experiment in the East China Sea in 2002. A set of characteristic parameters that describe absorbing crest and reflecting crest of the red tide and its recognition methods are put forward based on general pictre data, with which the spectral information of certain non-dominant alga species of a red tide occurrence is analyzed for establishing the foundation to estimate the species. Comparative experiments have proved that the method is effective. Meanwhile, the transitional area between red-tide zone and non-red-tide zone can be detected with the information of thickness of algae influence, with which a red tide can be forecast.

Spatial-Aware Supervised Learning for Hyper-Spectral Image Classification Comprehensive Assessment

A comprehensive assessment of the spatial.aware mpervised learning algorithms for hyper.spectral image （HSI） classification was presented. For this purpose, standard support vector machines （ SVMs ）, mudttnomial logistic regression （ MLR ） and sparse representation （SR） based supervised learning algorithm were compared both theoretically and experimentally. Performance of the discussed techniques was evaluated in terms of overall accuracy, average accuracy, kappa statistic coefficients, and sparsity of the solutions. Execution time, the computational burden, and the capability of the methods were investigated by using probabilistie analysis. For validating the accuracy a classical benchmark AVIRIS Indian pines data set was used. Experiments show that integrating spectral.spatial context can further improve the accuracy, reduce the misclassltication error although the cost of computational time will be increased.

Bathymetry and bottom albedo retrieval using Hyperion:a case study of Thitu Island and reef

The Spratly(Nansha) Islands in the South China Sea have considerable economic and important militarily strategic status.Ocean color remote sensing is an effective mean of surveying and research and especially it is useful for areas that are difficult to access,such as Thitu Island and its reef in the Spratly Islands.The Hyper-spectral Optimization Process Exemplar(HOPE) model,developed by Lee et al.(1999) is a rapid and robust bathymetry method that uses hyper-spectral remote sensing.In this study,using Hyperion hyper-spectral sensor data and HOPE,we derive bathymetry and bottom albedo measurements around Thitu Island and its reef.We compare the distribution of bottom depths from C-MAP with that derived from the Hyperion data.The retrieved bathymetry results correlate well with the distribution obtained from the bathymetry contour from 2.0 to 20 m.The average difference between Hyperion and C-MAP for two selected transects was 17.1%(n=59,R=0.848,RMSE=2.342) and 10.9%(n=59,R2=0.834,RMSE=0.463).The retrieved bottom albedo is homogeneous in the lagoon and significantly non-homogeneous around the lagoon.These results indicate that HOPE could be very useful for bathymetry studies for the islands of the South China Sea.

Hydrocarbon Micro-Seepage Detection by Altered Minerals Mapping from Airborne Hyper-Spectral Data in Xifeng Oilfield,China

Hydrocarbon micro-seepage can cause oxidation reduction reactions and produce altered minerals in surface sediments and soft. The typical altered minerals mapping by their diagnostic spectral features on hyper-spectral images is an important tool for the petroleum exploration industry. In this study, the airborne hyper-spectral data were used to investigate the altered minerals induced by hydrocarbon micro-seepages by spectral feature fitting （SFF） in the loess coverage area of Xifeng Oflfield. The results re- veal that the distribution region of the altered minerals induced by hydrocarbon micro-seepage is larger than the known oilfield exploration area. The potential hydrocarbon micro-seepage region was also re- vealed by the distribution of altered minerals besides the known hydrocarbon area. A fast index was pro- posed by the absorption depths of clay and carbonate minerals for assessment of hydrocarbon micro- seepage. And it gave much clearer boundaries for the hydrocarbon micro-seepage in the loess coverage area than those by the altered mineral mapping. In addition, some field samples were analyzed by X-ray diffrac- tion （XRD） and atomic absorption spectrophotometer to validate the results. Within the extents of hydro- carbon micro-seepage, there are lower contents of ferric iron and higher contents of carbonate minerals in these samples. Therefore, it is satisfactory to have the airborne hyper-spectral data to outline the extents of hydrocarbon micro-seepage for further hydrocarbon exploration in the loess coverage area.

By using Hyperion HRS technology and field spectrummeasuring and integrating traditional geological method as well as laboratory chemical measurement, the absorptionspectrum features and the spectral variation rules of vegetation caused by coal mine waste piles were studied. Based onthe spectral modeling methods and Vegetation Red Edge Parameter (VREP), the diagnose spectra information andspectral variation parameter were extracted, and the mapping methods of VREP were researched. The spatial distribu-tions of contaminative vegetation have been quickly found out.This study has provided technical supports for the envi-ronment investigation and pollution management of coal mines.

High-resolution Hyper-spectral Image Classification with Parts-based Feature and Morphology Profile in Urban Area

High-resolution hyper-spectral image (HHR) provides both detailed structural and spectral information for urban study. However, due to the inherent correlation between spectral bands and within-class variability in the data, the data processing of HHR is a challenging work. In this paper, based on spectral mixture analysis theory, a new stack of parts description features were extracted, and then incorporated with a stack of morphology based spatial features. Partially supervised constrained energy minimization (CEM) and unsupervised nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) were used to extract the part-features. The joint features were then integrated by SVM classifier. The advantages of this method are the representation of physical composition of the urban area by the parts-features and the show of multi-scale structure information by morphology profiles. Experiments with an airborne hyper-spectral data flightline over the Washington DC Mall were performed, and the performance of the proposed algorithm was evaluated in comparison with well-known nonparametric weighted feature extraction (NWFE) and feature selection method. The results shown that the proposed features-joint scheme consistently outperforms the traditional methods, and so can provide an effective option for processing HHR data in urban area.

Spectral Response of Different Eroded Soils in Subtropical China: A Case Study in Changting County, China

Hyper-spectral data is widely used to determine soil properties. However, few studies have explored the soil spectral characteristics as response to soil erosion. This study analysed the spectral response of different eroded soils in subtropical China, and then identify the spectral characteristics and soil properties that better discriminate softs with different erosion degrees. Two methods were compared： direct identification by inherent spectral characteristics and indirect identification by predictions of critical soft properties. Results showed that the spectral curves for different degrees of erosion were similar in morphology, while overall reflectance and characteristics of specific absorption peaks were different. When the first method is applied, some differences among different eroded groups were found by integration of associated indicators. However, the index of such indicators showed apparent mixing and crossover among different groups, which reduced the accuracy of identification. For the second method, the correlation between critical soil properties, such as soil organic matter （SOM）, iron and aluminium oxides and reflectance spectra, was analysed. The correlation coefficients for the moderate eroded group were primarily between -0.3 to -0.5, which were worse than the other twogroups. However, the maximum value of R2 was obtained as 0.86 and 0.94 for the non-apparent eroded and the severe group. Furthermore, these two groups also showed some differences in the spectral response of iron complex state （Fep）, Aluminium amorphous state （Alo） and the modelling results for soil organic matter （SOM）. The study proved that it is feasible to identify different degrees of soil erosion by hyperspectral data, and that indirect identification by modelling critical soil properties and reflectance spectra is much better than direct identification. These results indicate that hyper-spectral data may represent a promising tool in monitoring and modelling soil erosion.

Distance-based separability criterion of ROI in classification of farmland hyper-spectral images

The hyper-spectral image contains spectral and spatial information,which increases the ability and precision of objects classification.Despite the classification value of hyper-spectral imaging technology within various applications,users often find it difficult to effectively apply in practice because of the effect of light,temperature and wind in outdoor environment.This research presented a new classification model for outdoor farmland objects based on near-infrared(NIR)hyper-spectral images.It involves two steps including region of interest(ROI)acquisition and establishment of classifiers.A distance-based method for quantitative analysis was proposed to optimize the reference pixels in ROI acquisition firstly.Then maximum likelihood(ML)and support vector machine(SVM)were used for farmland objects classification.The performance of the proposed method showed that the total classification accuracy based on the reference pixels was over 97.5%,of which the SVM-M model could reach 99.5%.The research provided an effective method for outdoor farmland image classification.

The Monitoring of Red Tides Based on Modular Neural Networks Using Airborne Hyperspectral Remote Sensing

This paper proposes a red tide monitoring method based on clustering and modular neural networks. To obtain the features of red tide from a mass of aerial remote sensing hyperspectral data, first the Log Residual Correction （LRC） is used to normalize the data, and then clustering analysis is adopted to select and form the training samples for the neural networks. For rapid monitoring, the discriminator is composed of modular neural networks, whose structure and learning parameters are determined by an Adaptive Genetic Algorithm （AGA）. The experiments showed that this method can monitor red tide rapidly and effectively.
