It is known that most real images contain noise that is not i.i.d. across bands, and so methods that assume i.i.d. noise are often avoided. However, this problem may be alleviated by implementing a noise whitening procedure as a pre-processing step. In this paper we will investigate one particular noise whitening approach, as well as a noise removal approach, and consider how the application of these methods may improve several methods for determining the intrinsic dimension of an image, including Malinowski’s Empirical Indicator Function [1], Random Matrix Theory [2], and Harsanyi-Farrand-Chang [3].enHyperspectral unmixingRandom matrix theoryIntrinsic dimensionNoise whiteningConference PresentationCawse K, Robin A, & Sears M (2011).
