Hyperspectral image compression using hybrid transform with different wavelet-based transform coding

Abstract

Hyperspectral image resolution offers limited spectral bands within a continual spectral spectrum, creating one of the spectra of most pixels inside the sequence which contains huge volume of data. Data transmission and storage is a challenging task. Compression of hyperspectral images are inevitable. This work proposes a Hyperspectral Image (HSI) compression using Hybrid Transform. First the HSI is decomposed into 1D and it is clustered and tiled. Each cluster is applied with Integer Karhunen–Loeve Transform (IKLT) and as such it is applied for whole image to get IKLT bands in spectral dimension. Then IKLT bands are applied with Integer Wavelet Transform (IDWT) to decorrelate the spatial data in spatial dimension. The combination of IKLT and IDWT is known as Hybrid transform. Second, the decorrelated wavelet coefficients are applied to Spatial-oriention Tree Wavelet (STW), Wavelet Difference Reduction (WDR) and Adaptively Scanned Wavelet Difference Reduction (ASWDR). The experimental result shows STW algorithm using Hybrid Transform gives better PSNR (db) and bits per pixel per band (bpppb) for hyperspectral images. The comparison between STW, WDR and ASWDR with Hybrid Transform for Indian Pines, Salinas, Botswana, Botswana and KSC images is experimented.
