Simultaneous Spectral-Spatial Feature Selection and Extraction for Hyperspectral Images
In hyperspectral remote sensing data mining, it is important to take into
account of both spectral and spatial information, such as the spectral
signature, texture feature and morphological property, to improve the
performances, e.g., the image classification accuracy. In a feature
representation point of view, a nature approach to handle this situation is to
concatenate the spectral and spatial features into a single but high
dimensional vector and then apply a certain dimension reduction technique
directly on that concatenated vector before feed it into the subsequent
classifier. However, multiple features from various domains definitely have
different physical meanings and statistical properties, and thus such
concatenation hasn't efficiently explore the complementary properties among
different features, which should benefit for boost the feature
discriminability. Furthermore, it is also difficult to interpret the
transformed results of the concatenated vector. Consequently, finding a
physically meaningful consensus low dimensional feature representation of
original multiple features is still a challenging task. In order to address the
these issues, we propose a novel feature learning framework, i.e., the
simultaneous spectral-spatial feature selection and extraction algorithm, for
hyperspectral images spectral-spatial feature representation and
classification. Specifically, the proposed method learns a latent low
dimensional subspace by projecting the spectral-spatial feature into a common
feature space, where the complementary information has been effectively
exploited, and simultaneously, only the most significant original features have
been transformed. Encouraging experimental results on three public available
hyperspectral remote sensing datasets confirm that our proposed method is
effective and efficient
A Comprehensive Survey of Deep Learning in Remote Sensing: Theories, Tools and Challenges for the Community
In recent years, deep learning (DL), a re-branding of neural networks (NNs),
has risen to the top in numerous areas, namely computer vision (CV), speech
recognition, natural language processing, etc. Whereas remote sensing (RS)
possesses a number of unique challenges, primarily related to sensors and
applications, inevitably RS draws from many of the same theories as CV; e.g.,
statistics, fusion, and machine learning, to name a few. This means that the RS
community should be aware of, if not at the leading edge of, of advancements
like DL. Herein, we provide the most comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art
RS DL research. We also review recent new developments in the DL field that can
be used in DL for RS. Namely, we focus on theories, tools and challenges for
the RS community. Specifically, we focus on unsolved challenges and
opportunities as it relates to (i) inadequate data sets, (ii)
human-understandable solutions for modelling physical phenomena, (iii) Big
Data, (iv) non-traditional heterogeneous data sources, (v) DL architectures and
learning algorithms for spectral, spatial and temporal data, (vi) transfer
learning, (vii) an improved theoretical understanding of DL systems, (viii)
high barriers to entry, and (ix) training and optimizing the DL.Comment: 64 pages, 411 references. To appear in Journal of Applied Remote
