<p>Hyperspectral remote sensors collect image data for a large number of narrow, adjacent spectral bands. Every pixel in hyperspectral image involves a continuous spectrum that is used to classify the objects with great detail and precision. This paper presents hyperspectral image classification mechanism using genetic algorithm with empirical mode decomposition and image fusion used in preprocessing stage. 2-D Empirical mode decomposition method is used to remove any noisy components in each band of the hyperspectral data. After filtering, image fusion is performed on the hyperspectral bands to selectively merge the maximum possible features from the source images to form a single image. This fused image is classified using genetic algorithm. Different indices, such as K-means (KMI), Davies-Bouldin Index (DBI), and Xie-Beni Index (XBI) are used as objective functions. This method increases classification accuracy of hyperspectral image.</p>

<p>This paper presents genetic algorithm based band selection and classification on hyperspectral image data set. Hyperspectral remote sensors collect image data for a large number of narrow, adjacent spectral bands. Every pixel in hyperspectral image involves a continuous spectrum that is used to classify the objects with great detail and precision. In this paper, first filtering based on 2-D Empirical mode decomposition method is used to remove any noisy components in each band of the hyperspectral data. After filtering, band selection is done using genetic algorithm in-order to remove bands that convey less information. This dimensionality reduction minimizes many requirements such as storage space, computational load, communication bandwidth etc which is imposed on the unsupervised classification algorithms. Next image fusion is performed on the selected hyperspectral bands to selectively merge the maximum possible features from the selected images to form a single image. This fused image is classified using genetic algorithm. Three different indices, such as K-means Index (KMI) and Jm measure are used as objective functions. This method increases classification accuracy and performance of hyperspectral image than without dimensionality reduction.</p>
