Linear vs Nonlinear Extreme Learning Machine for Spectral-Spatial Classification of Hyperspectral Image
As a new machine learning approach, extreme learning machine (ELM) has
received wide attentions due to its good performances. However, when directly
applied to the hyperspectral image (HSI) classification, the recognition rate
is too low. This is because ELM does not use the spatial information which is
very important for HSI classification. In view of this, this paper proposes a
new framework for spectral-spatial classification of HSI by combining ELM with
loopy belief propagation (LBP). The original ELM is linear, and the nonlinear
ELMs (or Kernel ELMs) are the improvement of linear ELM (LELM). However, based
on lots of experiments and analysis, we found out that the LELM is a better
choice than nonlinear ELM for spectral-spatial classification of HSI.
Furthermore, we exploit the marginal probability distribution that uses the
whole information in the HSI and learn such distribution using the LBP. The
proposed method not only maintain the fast speed of ELM, but also greatly
improves the accuracy of classification. The experimental results in the
well-known HSI data sets, Indian Pines and Pavia University, demonstrate the
good performances of the proposed method.Comment: 13 pages,8 figures,3 tables,articl
