In this paper supervised classification method is proposed. It is based on Bayes discriminant functions (BDF) and it deals with the problem of optimal classification for images, which are corrupted by natural phenomenon such as cloud, smoke or fog. Solving such a problem is very important when we have remotely sensed information, which very often is corrupted by clouds. For example, the remotely sensed images from the territory of Lithuania are very often corrupted by clouds. The idea of classification, using BDF with incorporated spatial dependency between the observation to be classified and the training sample is presented in earlier works of the author. The novelty of this paper is the method how to use these methods for the real situation, i.e. for the remotely sensed image which is naturally covered by clouds. Visual and numerical results are presented in this paper, which show the advantage of this method against BDF ignoring spatial dependency between training sample and observation to be classified and against the method using grey level cooccurrence matrices.

Accuracy of land cover classification in remotely sensed images relies on the features extracted and the classifier used. Texture features are significant in land cover classification. Traditional texture models capture only patterns with discrete boundaries whereas fuzzy patterns need to be classified by assigning due weightage to uncertainty. When remotely sensed image contains noise, the image may have fuzzy patterns characterizing land covers and fuzzy boundaries separating land covers. So a fuzzy texture model is proposed for effective classification of land covers in remotely sensed images and the model uses Sugeno Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used for precise and fast classification of image pixels. Hence it is proposed to use a hybrid of fuzzy texture model and SVM for land cover classification of remotely sensed images. In this chapter, land cover classification of IRS-P6, LISS-IV remotely sensed image is performed using multivariate version of the proposed texture model.

Decision trees (DT) has been widely used for training and classification of remotely sensed image data due to its capability to generate human interpretable decision rules and its relatively fast speed in training and classification. This chapter proposes a successive decision tree (SDT) approach where the samples in the ill-classified branches of a previous resulting decision tree are used to construct a successive decision tree. The decision trees are chained together through pointers and used for classification. SDT aims at constructing more interpretable decision trees while attempting to improve classification accuracies. The proposed approach is applied to two real remotely sensed image datasets for evaluations in terms of classification accuracy and interpretability of the resulting decision rules.
