The multiplicative update rule for an extension of the iterative constrained endmembers algorithm.

Based on the multiplicative update rule of nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF), we add the nonnegative constraint of endmember matrix to the objective function of iterative constrained endmembers (ICE), and propose a simple multiplicative update rule for ICE, named NMF-ICE. Our method avoids the use of quadratic programming method in ICE, therefore can greatly improve the computational efficiency. Experiments using both simulated and real hyperspectral data show that NMF-ICE is effective in endmember generation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
