| Summary: | This work proposes a new morphological random walker (MRW) method for hyperspectral anomaly detection. The proposed method introduces a morphology-based objective function into a random walker (RW) algorithm, sufficiently exploiting spatial morphological property and spatial similarity of HSIs for detection. The MRW method comprises two major stages. Firstly, we employ the extended morphological profiles (EMPs) and different operations to extract the spatial morphological property of HSIs. Second, according to the morphological property, we construct a morphology-based objective function. This function is incorporated into the RW-based optimization model, encoding the spatial similarity of HSIs in a weighted graph. Two factors determine the class of test pixels, including the spatial morphological information learned by EMPs, and the spatial correlation among adjoining pixels modeled by the weighted graph. Since the two factors are well considered in the MRW method, the proposed method illustrates outstanding detection performances for several widely used real HSIs.
