Abstract

This paper is concerned with the comparison of three types of Gaussian based Artificial Neural Networks in the very high dimensionality classification problems found in hyperspectral signal processing. In particular, they have been compared for the spectral unmixing problem given the fact that the requirements for this type of classification are very different from other realms in two aspects: there are usually very few training samples leading to networks that are very easily overtrained, and these samples are not usually representative in terms of sampling the whole input-output space. The networks selected for comparison go from the classical Radial Basis Function (RBF) network to the more complex Gaussian Synapse Based Network (GSBN) considering an intermediate type, the Radial Basis Function with Multiple Deviation (RBFMD). The comparisons were carried out when processing a benchmark set of synthetic hyperspectral images containing mixtures of spectra from materials found in the US Geological Service database.
