Hyperspectral anomaly detection (HAD) is an important application of hyperspectral images (HSI) that can distinguish anomalies from background in an unsupervised manner. As a common unsupervised network in deep learning, autoencoders (AE) have been widely used in HAD and can highlight anomalies by reconstructing the background. This study proposed a novel spatial–spectral joint HAD method based on a two-branch 3D convolutional autoencoder and spatial filtering. We used the two-branch 3D convolutional autoencoder to fully extract the spatial–spectral joint features and spectral interband features of HSI. In addition, we used a morphological filter and a total variance curvature filter for spatial detection. Currently, most of the datasets used to validate the performance of HAD methods are airborne HSI, and there are few available satellite-borne HSI. For this reason, we constructed a dataset of satellite-borne HSI based on the GF-5 satellite for experimental validation of our anomaly detection method. The experimental results for the airborne and satellite-borne HSI demonstrated the superior performance of the proposed method compared with six state-of-the-art methods. The area under the curve (AUC) values of our proposed method on different HSI reached above 0.9, which is higher than those of the other methods.
Hyperspectral imaging often suffers from various types of noise, including sensor non-uniformity and atmospheric disturbances. Removing multiple types of complex noise in hyperspectral images (HSIs) while preserving high fidelity in spectral dimensions is a challenging task in hyperspectral data processing. Existing methods typically focus on specific types of noise, resulting in limited applicability and an inadequate ability to handle complex noise scenarios. This paper proposes a denoising method based on a network that considers both the spatial structure and spectral differences of noise in an image data cube. The proposed network takes into account the DN value of the current band, as well as the horizontal, vertical, and spectral gradients as inputs. A multi-resolution convolutional module is employed to accurately extract spatial and spectral noise features, which are then aggregated through residual connections at different levels. Finally, the residual mixed noise is approximated. Both simulated and real case studies confirm the effectiveness of the proposed denoising method. In the simulation experiment, the average PSNR value of the denoised results reached 31.47 at a signal-to-noise ratio of 8 dB, and the experimental results on the real data set Indian Pines show that the classification accuracy of the denoised hyperspectral image (HSI) is improved by 16.31% compared to the original noisy version.
