SPECTRAL UNMIXING: COMPARISON OF LINEAR AND NONLINEAR MIXTURE MODELING

Figure 3. Comparison of linear and nonlinear mixture modeling of Psidium guajava on Isla Isabela from a 2002 Hyperion image. Percentage P. guajava based on (a) linear mixture modeling using spectral end members generated from the minimum noise fraction (MNF) transformation of the Hyperion image and (b) nonlinear mixture modeling from a neural network analysis using training data generated from the pixel-based classification of the QuickBird image.
