Summary:In the paper, we consider the probability of applying hyper-spectral image (HSI) processing methods to panchromatic images (PIs), which is a novel yet crucial issue for further analyses. To achieve the purpose, we propose an effective approach for handling PI with HSI unmixing methods. In the approach, HSI simulating process is first implemented to obtain a synthetic HSI from PI. After that, a hyperspectral unmixing algorithm, vertex component analysis, is then applied to extract endmembers that comprise the vertices of the data simplex. Meanwhile, we calculate abundances of HSI by employing least squares method. We will see that the unmixing results, namely endmembers and abundances, can be used for target detection and other applications. Different objects such as ships and cars were successfully extracted from the backgrounds, which demonstrates the efficacy of the proposed approach.
