A ROBUST CHANGE DETECTOR FOR MULTILOOK POLARIMETRIC SYNTHETIC APERTURE RADAR DATA

In this paper, we propose a robust unsupervised change detection algorithm for multilook polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) data. The Hotelling-Lawley trace (HLT) statistic is used as a test statistic to measure the similarity of two covariance matrices. The generalized Kittler and Illin...
