In recent years, more and more researchers have gradually paid attention to Hyperspectral Image (HSI) classification. It is significant to implement researches on how to use HSI's sufficient spectral and spatial information to its fullest potential. To capture spectral and spatial features, we propose a Double-Branch Dual-Attention mechanism network (DBDA) for HSI classification in this paper, Two branches aer designed to extract spectral and spatial features separately to reduce the interferences between these two kinds of features. What is more, because distinguishing characteristics exist in the two branches, two types of attention mechanisms are applied in two branches above separately, ensuring to exploit spectral and spatial features more discriminatively. Finally, the extracted features are fused for classification. A series of empirical studies have been conducted on four hyperspectral datasets, and the results show that the proposed method performs better than the state-of-the-art method.

In recent years, researchers have paid increasing attention on hyperspectral image (HSI) classification using deep learning methods. To improve the accuracy and reduce the training samples, we propose a double-branch dual-attention mechanism network (DBDA) for HSI classification in this paper. Two branches are designed in DBDA to capture plenty of spectral and spatial features contained in HSI. Furthermore, a channel attention block and a spatial attention block are applied to these two branches respectively, which enables DBDA to refine and optimize the extracted feature maps. A series of experiments on four hyperspectral datasets show that the proposed framework has superior performance to the state-of-the-art algorithm, especially when the training samples are signally lacking.

Recently, Hyperspectral Image (HSI) classification has gradually been getting attention from more and more researchers. HSI has abundant spectral and spatial information; thus, how to fuse these two types of information is still a problem worth studying. In this paper, to extract spectral and spatial feature, we propose a Double-Branch Multi-Attention mechanism network (DBMA) for HSI classification. This network has two branches to extract spectral and spatial feature respectively which can reduce the interference between the two types of feature. Furthermore, with respect to the different characteristics of these two branches, two types of attention mechanism are applied in the two branches respectively, which ensures to extract more discriminative spectral and spatial feature. The extracted features are then fused for classification. A lot of experiment results on three hyperspectral datasets shows that the proposed method performs better than the state-of-the-art method.

Recent research has shown that integration of spatial information has emerged as a powerful tool in improving the classification accuracy of hyperspectral image (HSI). However, partitioning homogeneous regions of the HSI remains a challenging task. This paper proposes a novel spectral-spatial classification method inspired by the support vector machine (SVM). The model consists of spectral-spatial feature extraction channel (SSC) and SVM classifier. SSC is mainly used to extract spatial-spectral features of HSI. SVM is mainly used to classify the extracted features. The model can automatically extract the features of HSI and classify them. Experiments are conducted on benchmark HSI dataset (Indian Pines). It is found that the proposed method yields more accurate classification results compared to the state-of-the-art techniques.

In recent years, supervised learning-based methods have achieved excellent performance for hyperspectral image (HSI) classification. However, the collection of training samples with labels is not only costly but also time-consuming. This fact usually causes the existence of weak supervision, including incorrect supervision where mislabeled samples exist and incomplete supervision where unlabeled samples exist. Focusing on the inaccurate supervision and incomplete supervision, the weakly supervised classification of HSI is investigated in this paper. For inaccurate supervision, complementary learning (CL) is firstly introduced for HSI classification. Then, a new method, which is based on selective CL and convolutional neural network (SeCL-CNN), is proposed for classification with noisy labels. For incomplete supervision, a data augmentation-based method, which combines mixup and Pseudo-Label (Mix-PL) is proposed. And then, a classification method, which combines Mix-PL and CL (Mix-PL-CL), is designed aiming at better semi-supervised classification capacity of HSI. The proposed weakly supervised methods are evaluated on three widely-used hyperspectral datasets (i.e., Indian Pines, Houston, and Salinas datasets). The obtained results reveal that the proposed methods provide competitive results compared to the state-of-the-art methods. For inaccurate supervision, the proposed SeCL-CNN has outperformed the state-of-the-art method (i.e., SSDP-CNN) by 0.92%, 1.84%, and 1.75% in terms of OA on the three datasets, when the noise ratio is 30%. And for incomplete supervision, the proposed Mix-PL-CL has outperformed the state-of-the-art method (i.e., AROC-DP) by 1.03%, 0.70%, and 0.82% in terms of OA on the three datasets, with 25 training samples per class.

Deep-learning methods, especially convolutional neural networks (CNN), have become the first choice for hyperspectral image (HSI) classification to date. It is a common procedure that small cubes are cropped from hyperspectral images and then fed into CNNs. However, standard CNNs find it difficult to extract discriminative spectral–spatial features. How to obtain finer spectral–spatial features to improve the classification performance is now a hot topic of research. In this regard, the attention mechanism, which has achieved excellent performance in other computer vision, holds the exciting prospect. In this paper, we propose a double-branch network consisting of a novel convolution named pyramidal convolution (PyConv) and an iterative attention mechanism. Each branch concentrates on exploiting spectral or spatial features with different PyConvs, supplemented by the attention module for refining the feature map. Experimental results demonstrate that our model can yield competitive performance compared to other state-of-the-art models.

Convolution-based autoencoder networks have yielded promising performances in exploiting spatial–contextual signatures for spectral unmixing. However, the extracted spectral and spatial features of some networks are aggregated, which makes it difficult to balance their effects on unmixing results. In this paper, we propose two gated autoencoder networks with the intention of adaptively controlling the contribution of spectral and spatial features in unmixing process. Gating mechanism is adopted in the networks to filter and regularize spatial features to construct an unmixing algorithm based on spectral information and supplemented by spatial information. In addition, abundance sparsity regularization and gating regularization are introduced to ensure the appropriate implementation. Experimental results validate the superiority of the proposed method to the state-of-the-art techniques in both synthetic and real-world scenes. This study confirms the effectiveness of gating mechanism in improving the accuracy and efficiency of utilizing spatial signatures for spectral unmixing.

At present many researchers pay attention to a combination of spectral features and spatial features to enhance hyperspectral image (HSI) classification accuracy. However, the spatial features in some methods are utilized insufficiently. In order to further improve the performance of HSI classification, the spectral-spatial joint classification of HSI based on the broad learning system (BLS) (SSBLS) method was proposed in this paper; it consists of three parts. Firstly, the Gaussian filter is adopted to smooth each band of the original spectra based on the spatial information to remove the noise. Secondly, the test sample’s labels can be obtained using the optimal BLS classification model trained with the spectral features smoothed by the Gaussian filter. At last, the guided filter is performed to correct the BLS classification results based on the spatial contextual information for improving the classification accuracy. Experiment results on the three real HSI datasets demonstrate that the mean overall accuracies (OAs) of ten experiments are 99.83% on the Indian Pines dataset, 99.96% on the Salinas dataset, and 99.49% on the Pavia University dataset. Compared with other methods, the proposed method in the paper has the best performance.

Various authors have emphasized the spatial information resident in an electron micrograph taken with adequately coherent radiation. In view of the completion of at least one such instrument, this opportunity is taken to summarize the state of the art of processing such micrographs. We use the usual symbols for the aberration coefficients, and supplement these with £ and 6 for the transverse coherence length and the fractional energy spread respectively. He also assume a weak, biologically interesting sample, with principal interest lying in the molecular skeleton remaining after obvious hydrogen loss and other radiation damage has occurred.
