Bidirectional-Convolutional LSTM Based Spectral-Spatial Feature Learning for Hyperspectral Image Classification
This paper proposes a novel deep learning framework named
bidirectional-convolutional long short term memory (Bi-CLSTM) network to
automatically learn the spectral-spatial feature from hyperspectral images
(HSIs). In the network, the issue of spectral feature extraction is considered
as a sequence learning problem, and a recurrent connection operator across the
spectral domain is used to address it. Meanwhile, inspired from the widely used
convolutional neural network (CNN), a convolution operator across the spatial
domain is incorporated into the network to extract the spatial feature.
Besides, to sufficiently capture the spectral information, a bidirectional
recurrent connection is proposed. In the classification phase, the learned
features are concatenated into a vector and fed to a softmax classifier via a
fully-connected operator. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed
Bi-CLSTM framework, we compare it with several state-of-the-art methods,
including the CNN framework, on three widely used HSIs. The obtained results
show that Bi-CLSTM can improve the classification performance as compared to
other methods
Deep learning in remote sensing: a review
Standing at the paradigm shift towards data-intensive science, machine
learning techniques are becoming increasingly important. In particular, as a
major breakthrough in the field, deep learning has proven as an extremely
powerful tool in many fields. Shall we embrace deep learning as the key to all?
Or, should we resist a 'black-box' solution? There are controversial opinions
in the remote sensing community. In this article, we analyze the challenges of
using deep learning for remote sensing data analysis, review the recent
advances, and provide resources to make deep learning in remote sensing
ridiculously simple to start with. More importantly, we advocate remote sensing
scientists to bring their expertise into deep learning, and use it as an
implicit general model to tackle unprecedented large-scale influential
challenges, such as climate change and urbanization.Comment: Accepted for publication IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Magazin
