Sparse representation based hyperspectral image compression and classification
Abstract
This thesis presents a research work on applying sparse representation to lossy hyperspectral image
compression and hyperspectral image classification. The proposed lossy hyperspectral image
compression framework introduces two types of dictionaries distinguished by the terms sparse
representation spectral dictionary (SRSD) and multi-scale spectral dictionary (MSSD), respectively.
The former is learnt in the spectral domain to exploit the spectral correlations, and the
latter in wavelet multi-scale spectral domain to exploit both spatial and spectral correlations in
hyperspectral images. To alleviate the computational demand of dictionary learning, either a
base dictionary trained offline or an update of the base dictionary is employed in the compression
framework. The proposed compression method is evaluated in terms of different objective
metrics, and compared to selected state-of-the-art hyperspectral image compression schemes, including
JPEG 2000. The numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness and competitiveness of
both SRSD and MSSD approaches.
For the proposed hyperspectral image classification method, we utilize the sparse coefficients
for training support vector machine (SVM) and k-nearest neighbour (kNN) classifiers. In particular,
the discriminative character of the sparse coefficients is enhanced by incorporating contextual
information using local mean filters. The classification performance is evaluated and compared
to a number of similar or representative methods. The results show that our approach could outperform
other approaches based on SVM or sparse representation.
This thesis makes the following contributions. It provides a relatively thorough investigation
of applying sparse representation to lossy hyperspectral image compression. Specifically,
it reveals the effectiveness of sparse representation for the exploitation of spectral correlations
in hyperspectral images. In addition, we have shown that the discriminative character of sparse
coefficients can lead to superior performance in hyperspectral image classification.EM201
Locality and Structure Regularized Low Rank Representation for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Hyperspectral image (HSI) classification, which aims to assign an accurate
label for hyperspectral pixels, has drawn great interest in recent years.
Although low rank representation (LRR) has been used to classify HSI, its
ability to segment each class from the whole HSI data has not been exploited
fully yet. LRR has a good capacity to capture the underlying lowdimensional
subspaces embedded in original data. However, there are still two drawbacks for
LRR. First, LRR does not consider the local geometric structure within data,
which makes the local correlation among neighboring data easily ignored.
Second, the representation obtained by solving LRR is not discriminative enough
to separate different data. In this paper, a novel locality and structure
regularized low rank representation (LSLRR) model is proposed for HSI
classification. To overcome the above limitations, we present locality
constraint criterion (LCC) and structure preserving strategy (SPS) to improve
the classical LRR. Specifically, we introduce a new distance metric, which
combines both spatial and spectral features, to explore the local similarity of
pixels. Thus, the global and local structures of HSI data can be exploited
sufficiently. Besides, we propose a structure constraint to make the
representation have a near block-diagonal structure. This helps to determine
the final classification labels directly. Extensive experiments have been
conducted on three popular HSI datasets. And the experimental results
demonstrate that the proposed LSLRR outperforms other state-of-the-art methods.Comment: 14 pages, 7 figures, TGRS201
