Abstract
Detection of anomalous objects in a large scene is an important application of hyperspectral imaging in remote sensing. Current algorithms for anomaly detection are based on partialling out the main background structure from each spectral component of a pixel from a hyperspectral image. The Maximized Subspace Model (MSM) detector has the best probability of detection in comparison with the other anomaly detectors that are based on this model. This paper proposes an anomaly detection algorithm that is based on a more general model than the MSM detector. The anomaly detector is also defined as the Mahalanobis distance of the resulting residual. Experimental results show that the anomaly detector has a substantial improvement in detection over the conventional anomaly detectors.
