Asymmetric Weighted Logistic Metric Learning for Hyperspectral Target Detection.

Traditional target detection methods assume that the background spectrum is subject to the Gaussian distribution, which may only perform well under certain conditions. In addition, traditional target detection methods suffer from the problem of the unbalanced number of target and background samples. To solve these problems, this study presents a novel target detection method based on asymmetric weighted logistic metric learning (AWLML). We first construct a logistic metric-learning approach as an objective function with a positive semidefinite constraint to learn the metric matrix from a set of labeled samples. Then, an asymmetric weighted strategy is provided to emphasize the unbalance between the number of target and background samples. Finally, an accelerated proximal gradient method is applied to identify the global minimum value. Extensive experiments on three challenging hyperspectral datasets demonstrate that the proposed AWLML algorithm improves the state-of-the-art target detection performance.
