The proposed（GNWSF–SRC） method first combines the Gabor spatial features and nonparametric weighted spectral features to describe the hyperspectral image, and then applies the sparse representation method. Finally, the classification is obtained by analyzing the reconstruction error. We use the proposed method to process two typical hyperspectral data sets with different percentages of training samples. Theoretical analysis and simulation demonstrate that the proposed method improves the classification accuracy and Kappa coefficient compared with traditional classification methods and achieves better classification performance.展开更多

As a special version and improvement to SRC, collaborative representation based classification （CRC） obtains representation with the contribution from all training samples and produces more promising results on facial image classification. In the solutions of representation coefficients, CRC considers original value of contributions from all samples. However, one prevalent practice in such kind of distance-based methods is to consider only absolute value of the distance rather than both positive and negative values. In this paper, we propose an novel method to improve collaborative representation based classification, which integrates an absolute distance vector into the residuals solved by collaborative representation. And we named it AbsCRC. The key step in AbsCRC method is to use factors a and b as weight to combine CRC residuals rescrc with absolute distance vector disabs and generate a new dviaetion r = a·rescrc b.disabs, which is in turn used to perform classification. Because the two residuals have opposite effect in classification, the method uses a subtraction operation to perform fusion. We conducted extensive experiments to evaluate our method for image classification with different instantiations. The experimental results indicated that it produced a more promising result of classification on both facial and non-facial images than original CRC method.展开更多

But an image database was restricted to human frontal faces with only slight illumination and expression changes. Cropping and normalization of the face needs to be done beforehand. This paper uses a sparse representation-based algorithm for generic image classification with some intra-class variations and background clutter. A hierarchical framework based on the sparse representation is developed which flexibly combines different global and local features. Experiments with the hierarchical framework on 25 object categories selected from the Caltech101 dataset show that exploiting the advantage of local features with the hierarchical framework improves the classification performance and that the framework is robust to image occlusions, background clutter, and viewpoint changes.展开更多

To enhance the dictionary's discriminative power, the reconstruction error, classification error and inhomogeneous representation error are integrated into the objective function. The proposed approach learns a single structured dictionary and a linear classifier jointly. The learned dictionary encourages the samples from the same class to have similar sparse codes, and the samples from different classes to have dissimilar sparse codes. The solution to the objective function is achieved by employing a feature-sign search algorithm and Lagrange dual method. Experimental results on three public databases demonstrate that the proposed approach outperforms several recently proposed dictionary learning techniques for classification.展开更多

S3MME exploits both the labeled and unlabeled data to adaptively find neighbors of each sample from the same manifold by using an optimization program based on sparse representation, and naturally gives relative importance to the labeled ones through a graph-based methodology. Then it tries to extract discriminative features on each manifold such that the data points in the same manifold become closer. The effectiveness of the proposed multi-manifold learning algorithm is demonstrated and compared through experiments on a real hyperspectral images.展开更多

For this purpose, standard support vector machines （ SVMs ）, mudttnomial logistic regression （ MLR ） and sparse representation （SR） based supervised learning algorithm were compared both theoretically and experimentally. Performance of the discussed techniques was evaluated in terms of overall accuracy, average accuracy, kappa statistic coefficients, and sparsity of the solutions. Execution time, the computational burden, and the capability of the methods were investigated by using probabilistie analysis. For validating the accuracy a classical benchmark AVIRIS Indian pines data set was used. Experiments show that integrating spectral.spatial context can further improve the accuracy, reduce the misclassltication error although the cost of computational time will be increased.展开更多

Sparsity of the image representation is the key factor for robust image classification.As an improvement to sparse representation-based classification, collaborative representation is a newer method for robust image classification. Training samples of all classes collaboratively contribute together to represent one single test sample. The ways of representing a test sample in sparse representation and collaborative representation are very different, so we propose a novel method to integrate both sparse and collaborative representations to provide improved results for robust face recognition.The method first computes a weighted average of the representation coefficients obtained from two conventional algorithms, and then uses it for classification. Experiments on several benchmark face databases show that our algorithm outperforms both sparse and collaborative representation-based classification algorithms, providing at least a 10%improvement in recognition accuracy.展开更多
