Hyperspectral Data Processing: Algorithm Design and Analysis

24.4 Experiments

Two data sets were used for computer simulations and real hyperspectral image experiments. As noted, many binary coding methods can be derived by various combinations of s^a, s^b, s^MP, s^HP, s^EPP, s^MD, s^MPD, s^HPD, and s^EPPD. So, the experiments presented in this section did not intend to represent a comprehensive study on all possible combinations. Instead, they intended to provide a glimpse of performance analysis on a selective set of eight binary coding methods that we believed to be representative. These include four SPAM-based binary coding methods: (SPAM), (MP), (HP) and (EPP), and four Qian et al.'s SFBC methods: (Qian et al.'s SFBC = SPAM + MD), (MP + MPD), (HP + HPD), (EPP + EPPD).
