Spectral–Spatial Discriminant Feature Learning for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Abstract
Sparse representation classification (SRC) is being widely applied to target detection in hyperspectral images (HSI). However, due to the problem in HSI that high-dimensional data contain redundant information, SRC methods may fail to achieve high classification performance, even with a large number of spectral bands. Selecting a subset of predictive features in a high-dimensional space is an important and challenging problem for hyperspectral image classification. In this paper, we propose a novel discriminant feature learning (DFL) method, which combines spectral and spatial information into a hypergraph Laplacian. First, a subset of discriminative features is selected, which preserve the spectral structure of data and the inter- and intra-class constraints on labeled training samples. A feature evaluator is obtained by semi-supervised learning with the hypergraph Laplacian. Secondly, the selected features are mapped into a further lower-dimensional eigenspace through a generalized eigendecomposition of the Laplacian matrix. The finally extracted discriminative features are used in a joint sparsity-model algorithm. Experiments conducted with benchmark data sets and different experimental settings show that our proposed method increases classification accuracy and outperforms the state-of-the-art HSI classification methods.
