The algorithms take into account the constraints of the abundance fractions, in order to get physically interpretable results. Abundance maps show that the Bayesian maximum a posteriori probability (MAP) estimator proposed in Themelis and Rontogiannis (2008) outperforms the other two schemes, offering a compromise between complexity and estimation performance. Thus, the MAP estimator is a candidate algorithm to perform ice and minerals detection on large hyperspectral datasets. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd. ER -
