  • Input Image: Input hyperspectral data cube.
  • Number of endmembers: The number of endmembers to extract from the data cube.
  • Output Endmembers: The endmebers, stored in a one-line multi-spectral image, each pixel representing an endmember.
  • set user defined seed: Set specific seed. with integer value.
  • Load otb application from xml file: Load otb application from xml file.
  • Save otb application to xml file: Save otb application to xml file.

Example

To run this example in command-line, use the following:

otbcli_VertexComponentAnalysis -in cupriteSubHsi.tif -ne 5 -outendm VertexComponentAnalysis.tif double

To run this example from Python, use the following code snippet:

#!/usr/bin/python

# Import the otb applications package
import otbApplication

# The following line creates an instance of the VertexComponentAnalysis application
VertexComponentAnalysis = otbApplication.Registry.CreateApplication("VertexComponentAnalysis")

# The following lines set all the application parameters:
VertexComponentAnalysis.SetParameterString("in", "cupriteSubHsi.tif")

VertexComponentAnalysis.SetParameterInt("ne", 5)

VertexComponentAnalysis.SetParameterString("outendm", "VertexComponentAnalysis.tif")
VertexComponentAnalysis.SetParameterOutputImagePixelType("outendm", 7)

# The following line execute the application
VertexComponentAnalysis.ExecuteAndWriteOutput()

Limitations

None
