abstract = "The concept of mixed pixels allows the interpretation of remote
sensing digital image data at sub-pixel level. Fraction-image
data, obtained using the notion of mixed pixels, offer a
potentially powerful method to detect changes in land-cover over a
given period of time. This study proposes a new approach to detect
land-cover changes, using two sets of fraction-image data obtained
from sets of multispectral image data acquired at two different
dates, over the same area. Changes based on the selected pixel
components are then used to generate the fraction-change image
data, including both positive (increase) and negative (decrease)
changes in each component. The proposed analysis is then performed
in the fraction-change space in two different ways: (1) by
implementing unsupervised classification methods and (2) by
comparing the fraction-change images among themselves. The
proposed methodology is tested on two sets of Landsat Thematic
Mapper (TM) multispectral image data obtained at two different
dates and covering a test area mapped in previous works. Results
obtained by the proposed methodology are presented and
discussed.",
