Coastline target detection based on UAV hyperspectral remote sensing images.

Timely and accurate monitoring of typical coastal targets using remote sensing technology is crucial for maintainingmarine ecological stability. Hyperspectral target detection technology proves to be an effective tool in extracting various typical materials along the coastline. Traditional target detection methods using spectral domain information can effectively retain the intrinsic properties of the material. However, it is difficult to effectively recognize targets in homogeneous regions by using only spectral domain information, which may lead to insufficient utilization of spatial information. In this study, a detector based on signal-to-noise ratio fusion constrained energy minimization with low-rank sparse decomposition (SFLRSD) is proposed. This detector improves the separability of background and target by obtaining spatial domain information from hyperspectral images and fusing spectral domain information. First, total variation regularization and fractional Fourier transform are applied to process spatial and spectral domain information, respectively. The constrained energy minimization (CEM) detector is used to improve the separability between the target and background of the processed data. Then, the background and anomalies are represented as low-rank and sparse components, respectively, using low-rank sparse matrix factorization. This transforms the model solution into a covariance matrix problem, which is then solved using marginal distance difference (MDD) to isolate anomalous parts. Subsequently, the anomaly parts are fused with CEM detector results, weighted by their respective signal-to-noise ratios. This detection model leverages unified hyperspectral image features, enhancing spectral discreteness of anomalous targets and backgrounds. Finally, experiments on custom created hyperspectral dataset show that the proposed method outperforms other baseline methods in terms of visualization and quantitative performance. In this paper, we not only propose a new hyperspectral target detection method, but we also collect three typicalmarine litter of different materials bymeans of airborne hyperspectral remote sensing and construct four hyperspectral datasets in a real environment. All the simulation experiments in this paper are conducted in these four datasets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
