Hyperspectral Image Clustering with Spatially-Regularized Ultrametrics
share
We propose a method for the unsupervised clustering of hyperspectral images based on spatially regularized spectral clustering with ultrametric path distances. The proposed method efficiently combines data density and geometry to distinguish between material classes in the data, without the need for training labels. The proposed method is efficient, with quasilinear scaling in the number of data points, and enjoys robust theoretical performance guarantees. Extensive experiments on synthetic and real HSI data demonstrate its strong performance compared to benchmark and state-of-the-art methods. In particular, the proposed method achieves not only excellent labeling accuracy, but also efficiently estimates the number of clusters.
