A family of subtraction-based anomalous change detection algorithms is derived from a total least squares (TLSQ) framework. This provides an alternative to the well-known chronochrome algorithm, which is derived from ordinary least squares. In both cases, the most anomalous changes are identified with the pixels that exhibit the largest residuals with respect to the regression of the two images against each other. The family of TLSQbased anomalous change detectors is shown to be equivalent to the subspace RX formulation for straight anomaly detection, but applied to the stacked space. However, this family is not invariant to linear coordinate transforms. On the other hand, whitened TLSQ is coordinate invariant, and special cases of it are equivalent to canonical correlation analysis and optimized covariance equalization. What whitened TLSQ offers is a generalization of these algorithms with the potential for better performance.
We present a new hybrid algorithm based on Godunov's method for computing eigenvectors of symmetric tridiagonal matrices and Inverse Iteration, which we call the Godunov-Inverse Iteration. We use eigenvectors computed according to Godunov's method as starting vectors in the Inverse Iteration, replacing any nonnumeric elements of Godunov's eigenvectors with random uniform numbers. We use the right-hand bounds of the Ritz intervals found by the bisection method as Inverse Iteration shifts, while staying within guaranteed error bounds. In most test cases convergence is reached after only one step of the iteration, producing error estimates that are as good as or superior to those produced by standard Inverse Iteration implementations.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
