Optimized spectral indices for camouflage detection in multispectral imagery by Tobias Hupel, Peter Stütz

“…Given the heavy use and utility of such indices, this work introduces a novel generalization of the normalized difference, ratio and difference indices, the linear ratio index (LRI), a ratio of two linear functions of all available bands. In addition, an optimization approach for the LRI is presented, which incorporates complexity reduction strategies that enable optimization using only a subset of all available bands and reduced parameter precision, thereby ensuring parameter readability. …”
