Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely used in hyperspectral image classification in recent years. The training of CNNs relies on a large amount of labeled sample data. However, the number of labeled samples of hyperspectral data is relatively small. Moreover, for hyperspectral images, fully extracting spectral and spatial feature information is the key to achieve high classification performance. To solve the above issues, a deep spectral spatial inverted residuals network (DSSIRNet) is proposed. In this network, a data block random erasing strategy is introduced to alleviate the problem of limited labeled samples by data augmentation of small spatial blocks. In addition, a deep inverted residuals (DIR) module for spectral spatial feature extraction is proposed, which locks the effective features of each layer while avoiding network degradation. Furthermore, a global 3D attention module is proposed, which can realize the fine extraction of spectral and spatial global context information under the condition of the same number of input and output feature maps. Experiments are carried out on four commonly used hyperspectral datasets. A large number of experimental results show that compared with some state-of-the-art classification methods, the proposed method can provide higher classification accuracy for hyperspectral images.

Hyperspectral image classification methods may not achieve good performance when a limited number of training samples are provided. However, labeling sufficient samples of hyperspectral images to achieve adequate training is quite expensive and difficult. In this paper, we propose a novel sample pseudo-labeling method based on sparse representation (SRSPL) for hyperspectral image classification, in which sparse representation is used to select the purest samples to extend the training set. The proposed method consists of the following three steps. First, intrinsic image decomposition is used to obtain the reflectance components of hyperspectral images. Second, hyperspectral pixels are sparsely represented using an overcomplete dictionary composed of all training samples. Finally, information entropy is defined for the vectorized sparse representation, and then the pixels with low information entropy are selected as pseudo-labeled samples to augment the training set. The quality of the generated pseudo-labeled samples is evaluated based on classification accuracy, i.e., overall accuracy, average accuracy, and Kappa coefficient. Experimental results on four real hyperspectral data sets demonstrate excellent classification performance using the new added pseudo-labeled samples, which indicates that the generated samples are of high confidence.

Hyperspectral image classification has been acknowledged as the fundamental and challenging task of hyperspectral data processing. The abundance of spectral and spatial information has provided great opportunities to effectively characterize and identify ground materials. In this paper, we propose a spectral and spatial classification framework for hyperspectral images based on Random Multi-Graphs (RMGs). The RMG is a graph-based ensemble learning method, which is rarely considered in hyperspectral image classification. It is empirically verified that the semi-supervised RMG deals well with small sample setting problems. This kind of problem is very common in hyperspectral image applications. In the proposed method, spatial features are extracted based on linear prediction error analysis and local binary patterns; spatial features and spectral features are then stacked into high dimensional vectors. The high dimensional vectors are fed into the RMG for classification. By randomly selecting a subset of features to create a graph, the proposed method can achieve excellent classification performance. The experiments on three real hyperspectral datasets have demonstrated that the proposed method exhibits better performance than several closely related methods.

Hyperspectral image classification has become an important research topic in remote sensing. Because of high dimensional data, a special attention is needed dealing with spectral data; and thus, one of the research topics in hyperspectral image classification is dimension reduction. In this paper, a dimension reduction approach is presented for classification on hyperspectral images. Advantages of the usage of not only global pattern information, but also local pattern information are examined in hyperspectral image processing. In addition, not only tuning the parameters, but also an experimental analysis of the distribution of the hyperspectral data is demonstrated. Therefore, how global or local pattern variations play an important role in classification is examined. According to the experimental outcomes, the promising results are obtained for classification on hyperspectral images.

In recent years, deep learning has been successfully applied to hyperspectral image classification (HSI) problems, with several convolutional neural network (CNN) based models achieving an appealing classification performance. However, due to the multi-band nature and the data redundancy of the hyperspectral data, the CNN model underperforms in such a continuous data domain. Thus, in this article, we propose an end-to-end transformer model entitled SAT Net that is appropriate for HSI classification and relies on the self-attention mechanism. The proposed model uses the spectral attention mechanism and the self-attention mechanism to extract the spectral–spatial features of the HSI image, respectively. Initially, the original HSI data are remapped into multiple vectors containing a series of planar 2D patches after passing through the spectral attention module. On each vector, we perform linear transformation compression to obtain the sequence vector length. During this process, we add the position–coding vector and the learnable–embedding vector to manage capturing the continuous spectrum relationship in the HSI at a long distance. Then, we employ several multiple multi-head self-attention modules to extract the image features and complete the proposed network with a residual network structure to solve the gradient dispersion and over-fitting problems. Finally, we employ a multilayer perceptron for the HSI classification. We evaluate SAT Net on three publicly available hyperspectral datasets and challenge our classification performance against five current classification methods employing several metrics, i.e., overall and average classification accuracy and Kappa coefficient. Our trials demonstrate that SAT Net attains a competitive classification highlighting that a Self-Attention Transformer network and is appealing for HSI classification.

In recent years, researches in remote sensing demonstrated that deep architectures with multiple layers can potentially extract abstract and invariant features for better hyperspectral image classification. Since the usual real-world hyperspectral image classification task cannot provide enough training samples for a supervised deep model, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), this work turns to investigate the deep belief networks (DBNs), which allow unsupervised training. The DBN trained over limited training samples usually has many “dead” (never responding) or “potential over-tolerant” (always responding) latent factors (neurons), which decrease the DBN’s description ability and thus finally decrease the hyperspectral image classification performance. This work proposes a new diversified DBN through introducing a diversity promoting prior over the latent factors during the DBN pre-training and fine-tuning procedures. The diversity promoting prior in the training procedures will encourage the latent factors to be uncorrelated, such that each latent factor focuses on modelling unique information, and all factors will be summed up to capture a large proportion of information and thus increase description ability and classification performance of the diversified DBNs. The proposed method was evaluated over the well-known real-world hyperspectral image dataset. The experiments demonstrate that the diversified DBNs can obtain much better results than original DBNs and comparable or even better performances compared with other recent hyperspectral image classification methods.

Recently, deep learning has been reported to be an effective method for improving hyperspectral image classification and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are, in particular, gaining more and more attention in this field. CNNs provide automatic approaches that can learn more abstract features of hyperspectral images from spectral, spatial, or spectral-spatial domains. However, CNN applications are focused on learning features directly from image data—while the intrinsic relations between original features, which may provide more information for classification, are not fully considered. In order to make full use of the relations between hyperspectral features and to explore more objective features for improving classification accuracy, we proposed feature relations map learning (FRML) in this paper. FRML can automatically enhance the separability of different objects in an image, using a segmented feature relations map (SFRM) that reflects the relations between spectral features through a normalized difference index (NDI), and it can then learn new features from SFRM using a CNN-based feature extractor. Finally, based on these features, a classifier was designed for the classification. With FRML, our experimental results from four popular hyperspectral datasets indicate that the proposed method can achieve more representative and objective features to improve classification accuracy, outperforming classifications using the comparative methods.

<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>

Because there are many unlabeled samples in hyperspectral images and the cost of manual labeling is high, this paper adopts semi-supervised learning method to make full use of many unlabeled samples. In addition, those hyperspectral images contain much spectral information and the convolutional neural networks have great ability in representation learning. This paper proposes a novel semi-supervised hyperspectral image classification framework which utilizes self-training to gradually assign highly confident pseudo labels to unlabeled samples by clustering and employs spatial constraints to regulate self-training process. Spatial constraints are introduced to exploit the spatial consistency within the image to correct and re-assign the mistakenly classified pseudo labels. Through the process of self-training, the sample points of high confidence are gradually increase, and they are added to the corresponding semantic classes, which makes semantic constraints gradually enhanced. At the same time, the increase in high confidence pseudo labels also contributes to regional consistency within hyperspectral images, which highlights the role of spatial constraints and improves the HSIc efficiency. Extensive experiments in HSIc demonstrate the effectiveness, robustness, and high accuracy of our approach.
