2. This method attempts to generate an optimum statistical relationship between a number of input variables (one or more of which are generally the parameters of interest) and a number of output variables (usually the observed spectral vectors).

3. Lacking probability distributions, we can best estimate y given x by minimizing the squared error between a linear estimate of y expressed as and y according to: (1)

4. Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression theory tells us that the optimal linear combination of X is given by: More fundamentally, the least square prediction of Y is given by or (2) (3) (4)

5. note that if we mean center X (i.e. subtract the mean value (u) and scale by the number of observations (n) then X T X is the covariance matrix i.e. i.e. x is redefined as: (5) (6)

6. we can decompose the covariance matrix into its principle components (aka eigen vectors). The Eigen vector matrix can be expressed as The X data are projected (transformed) onto the principle components space according to: (7) (8)

7. Cononical Correlation Analysis (CCA) PCR assumes the principle components of X will yield good predictions of Y based only on the covariance of X. In cononical correlating analysis (CCA), the joint covariance of X and Y is considered. In this process, an optimal orthogonal space is produced where the projections of both X and Y are maximally correlated.

8. The cononical correlations are the eigen values of: where Ψ is the k x k diagonal matrix of squared cononical correlations, k is the min (p, q), A is the matrix of column eigen vectors used to transform X and B is the matrix of column eigen vectors used to transform Y, i.e. (9) (10) (11) (12)

9. Hernandez-Baquero and Schott point out three useful properties: 1.The cononical variables are orthogonal 2.The cononical correlations are the maximum linear correlations between the data sets 3. and

10. To find the estimates of Y (i.e. ) from the predicted values If we regress the cononical variables using Equation 2, we obtain let and use property 3 above, such that (13) (14) (15)

12. From a practical standpoint, we still need in CCR to invert the covariance matrices as expressed in Equations 9 and 10. In general, these matrices may be singular (i.e. of reduced rank) and their I nverse will not exist. In these cases, we can use the singular value decomposition (SVD) to define the rank and reconstruct the matrices using the SVD approach discussed elsewhere in these notes. The reconstructed matrices are more amenable to inversions.

13. Examples In the first case, the Y ensemble was made up of n temperature and water vapor profiles at q altitudes to form a n x 2q matrix (i.e. each new row was temperatures at q altitudes followed by q corresponding water vapor values The X data were generated to simulate nighttime Modis Airborne Simulator (MAS) collection that took place over Death Valley at 21km

14. The X example for this first test was made up of p = 9 element spectral radiance vectors (i.e. 9 spectral bands) forming a ( n x p ) matrix.

19. CCR was used to predict the τ(λ), (L uλ ), (L pλ ) and vectors and solve for the surface leaving radiance according to (16)

20. A second experiment was conducted with 10 bands of LWIR data from the MASTER sensor flown over 2 water and 1 land target on 3 different missions shown in Figure 3 from Hernandez-Baquero and Schott (SPIE).
