Abstract
This letter proposes an unsupervised band selection (BS) algorithm named residual driven BS (RDBS) to address the lack of <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">a priori</i> information about anomalies, obtain a band subset with high representation capability of anomalies, and finally improve the anomaly detection (AD). First, an anomaly and background modeling framework (ABMF) is developed via density peak clustering (DPC) to pre-determine the prior knowledge of the anomalies and background. Then, the DPC-based constraints are applied to R-Anomaly Detector (RAD), and three band prioritization (BP) criteria are derived to obtain the representative band subset for anomalies. Experiments on two datasets show the superiority of RDBS over other BS algorithms and verify that the obtained band subsets are strongly representative of anomalies.
