It provides a new way to find targets that have significant spectral differences from the majority of the dataset. Recently, the representation-based methods have been proposed for detecting anomaly targets in HSIs. It is essential for this type of method to construct a valid background dictionary to distinguish anomaly and background accurately. In this paper, a novel hyperspectral anomaly detection method based on background estimation and adaptive weighted sparse representation has been proposed. Firstly, to obtain the effective background dictionary without anomaly information, a new background dictionary construction strategy is designed. Secondly, the sparse representation based on the constructed background dictionary is utilized on the dataset. Anomalies and background are distinguished through the response of the residual matrix. Thirdly, the residual matrix is weighted adaptively from global and local domains, which makes anomalies and background more discriminative. An important advantage of the proposed method is that it considers the properties of anomalies in both spectral and spatial domains. Experiments on three HSI datasets reveal that our proposed method achieves an outstanding detection performance compared with the other anomaly detection algorithms.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs10020272","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,12]],"date-time":"2018-02-12T10:50:38Z","timestamp":1518432638000},"page":"272","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":53,"title":["Hyperspectral Anomaly Detection via Background Estimation and Adaptive Weighted Sparse Representation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2037-6614","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lingxiao","family":"Zhu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Science and Technology on Automatic Target Recognition Laboratory, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}]},{"given":"Gongjian","family":"Wen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Science and Technology on Automatic Target Recognition Laboratory, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,2,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"6","DOI":"10.1109\/MGRS.2013.2244672","article-title":"Hyperspectral remote sensing data analysis and future challenges","volume":"1","author":"Plaza","year":"2013","journal-title":"IEEE Geosci.
