Stacked Auto-Encoder (SAE) is a rather new machine learning approach which utilize unlabelled training data to learn a deep hierarchical representation of features. SAE:s can be used to learn a feature representation that preserve key information of the features, but has a lower dimensionality than the original feature space. The learnt representation is a non-linear transformation that maps the original features to a space of lower dimensionality. Hyperspectral data are high dimensional while the information conveyed by the data about the scene can be represented in a space of considerably lower dimensionality. Transformation of the hyperspectral data into a representation in a space of lower dimensionality which preserve the most important information is crucial in many applications. We show how unlabelled hyperspectral signatures can be used to train a SAE. The focus for analysis is what type of spectral information is preserved in the hierarchical SAE representation. Results from hyperspectral images of natural scenes with man-made objects placed in the scene is presented. Example of how SAE:s can be used for anomaly detection, detection of anomalous spectral signatures, is also presented.
