Supervised vs Unsupervised Approaches for Real Time Hyperspectral Imaging Maritime Target Detection

This paper addresses the use of supervised and unsupervised methods for classification of hyperspectral imaging data in maritime border surveillance domain. In this work supervised (SVM) and unsupervised (HYDADE) approaches were implemented. An evaluation benchmark was performed in order to compare methods results using real hyperspectral imaging data taken from an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle in maritime border surveillance scenario.
