Besides field observations, it is necessary to analyze the land cover of wetlands through the color infrared （CIR） aerial photography or remote sensing image. In this paper, we designed an evolving neural network classifier using variable string genetic algorithm （VGA） for the land cover classification of CIR aerial image. With the VGA, the classifier that we designed is able to evolve automatically the appropriate number of hidden nodes for modeling the neural network topology optimally and to find a near-optimal set of connection weights globally. Then, with backpropagation algorithm （BP）, it can find the best connection weights. The VGA-BP classifier, which is derived from hybrid algorithms mentioned above, is demonstrated on CIR images classification effectively. Compared with standard classifiers, such as Bayes maximum-likelihood classifier, VGA classifier and BP-MLP （multi-layer perception） classifier, it has shown that the VGA-BP classifier can have better performance on highly resolution land cover classification.展开更多

This technique is a combi-nation of the usage of polarimetric information of SAR images and the unsupervised classification method based on fuzzy set theory.

The advantages of this algorithm are the automated classification, its high classifica-tion accuracy, fast convergence and high stability. The effectiveness of this algorithm is demonstrated by ex-periments using SIR-C/X-SAR (Spaceborne Imaging Radar-C/X-band Synthetic Aperture Radar) data.展开更多

A semi-supervised kernel fuzzy C-means （SSKFCM） algorithm is proposed to overcome these disadvantages of remote sensing image classification in this paper. The SSKFCM algorithm is achieved by introducing a kernel method and semi-supervised learning technique into the standard fuzzy C-means （FCM） algorithm. A set of Beijing-1 micro-satellite＇s multispectral images are adopted to be classified by several algorithms, such as FCM, kernel FCM （KFCM）, semi-supervised FCM （SSFCM） and SSKFCM. The classification results are estimated by corresponding indexes. The results indicate that the SSKFCM algorithm significantly improves the classification accuracy of remote sensing images compared with the others.展开更多

These processes have had both positive and negative effects on the economic and socio-political development of the country in general. The negative impacts have led not only to the degradation of the ecosystem but also posing hazards to human health and polluting surface and ground water resources. This has created the need for the development of a rapid, cost effective and efficient land use/land cover (LULC) classification technique to monitor the biophysical dynamics in the region. Due to the complex land cover patterns existing in the study area and the occasionally indistinguishable relationship between land cover and spectral signals, this paper introduces a combined use of unsupervised and supervised image classification for detecting land use/land cover (LULC) classes. With the continuous conflict over the impact of oil activities in the area, this work provides a procedure for detecting LULC change, which is an important factor to consider in the design of an environmental decision-making framework. Results from the use of this technique on Landsat TM and ETM+ of 1987 and 2002 are discussed. The results reveal the pros and cons of the two methods and the effects of their overall accuracy on post-classification change detection.展开更多

By analyzing the characteristics of product images, we proposed a fast supervised image classifier which is based on class-specific Pyramid Histogram Of Words (PHOW) descriptor and Im-age-to-Class distance (PHOW/I2C). In the training phase, the local features are densely sampled and represented as soft-voting PHOW descriptors, and then the class-specific descriptors are built with the means and variances of distribution of each visual word in each labelled class. For online testing, the normalized chi-square distance is calculated between the descriptor of query image and each class-specific descriptor. The class label corresponding to the least I2C distance is taken as the final winner. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and quickness of our method in the tasks of product clas-sification.展开更多

Firstly, the Sc SPM algorithm is performed to extract features of the multi-scale image blocks, and then each layer feature vector is connected to an ELM. Finally, the mapping features are connected together, and as the input of one ELM based on radial basis kernel function. With experimental evaluations on the well-known dataset benchmarks, the results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has better performance not only in reducing the training time, but also in improving the accuracy of classification.
文摘Coastal wetlands are characterized by complex patterns both in their geomorphlc and ecological teatures. Besides field observations, it is necessary to analyze the land cover of wetlands through the color infrared （CIR） aerial photography or remote sensing image. In this paper, we designed an evolving neural network classifier using variable string genetic algorithm （VGA） for the land cover classification of CIR aerial image. With the VGA, the classifier that we designed is able to evolve automatically the appropriate number of hidden nodes for modeling the neural network topology optimally and to find a near-optimal set of connection weights globally. Then, with backpropagation algorithm （BP）, it can find the best connection weights. The VGA-BP classifier, which is derived from hybrid algorithms mentioned above, is demonstrated on CIR images classification effectively. Compared with standard classifiers, such as Bayes maximum-likelihood classifier, VGA classifier and BP-MLP （multi-layer perception） classifier, it has shown that the VGA-BP classifier can have better performance on highly resolution land cover classification.

文摘In this letter, a new method is proposed for unsupervised classification of terrain types and man-made objects using POLarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (POLSAR) data. This technique is a combi-nation of the usage of polarimetric information of SAR images and the unsupervised classification method based on fuzzy set theory. Image quantization and image enhancement are used to preprocess the POLSAR data. Then the polarimetric information and Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) clustering algorithm are used to classify the preprocessed images. The advantages of this algorithm are the automated classification, its high classifica-tion accuracy, fast convergence and high stability. The effectiveness of this algorithm is demonstrated by ex-periments using SIR-C/X-SAR (Spaceborne Imaging Radar-C/X-band Synthetic Aperture Radar) data.

文摘The remote sensing image classification has stimulated considerable interest as an effective method for better retrieving information from the rapidly increasing large volume, complex and distributed satellite remote imaging data of large scale and cross-time, due to the increase of remote image quantities and image resolutions. In the paper, the genetic algorithms were employed to solve the weighting of the radial basis faction networks in order to improve the precision of remote sensing image classification. The remote sensing image classification was also introduced for the GIS spatial analysis and the spatial online analytical processing (OLAP), and the resulted effectiveness was demonstrated in the analysis of land utilization variation of Daqing city.
文摘Feature extraction is the most critical step in classification of multispectral image.The classification accuracy is mainly influenced by the feature sets that are selected to classify the image.In the past,handcrafted feature sets are used which are not adaptive for different image domains.To overcome this,an evolu-tionary learning method is developed to automatically learn the spatial-spectral features for classification.A modified Firefly Algorithm(FA)which achieves maximum classification accuracy with reduced size of feature set is proposed to gain the interest of feature selection for this purpose.For extracting the most effi-cient features from the data set,we have used 3-D discrete wavelet transform which decompose the multispectral image in all three dimensions.For selecting spatial and spectral features we have studied three different approaches namely overlapping window(OW-3DFS),non-overlapping window(NW-3DFS)adaptive window cube(AW-3DFS)and Pixel based technique.Fivefold Multiclass Support Vector Machine(MSVM)is used for classification purpose.Experiments con-ducted on Madurai LISS IV multispectral image exploited that the adaptive win-dow approach is used to increase the classification accuracy.

文摘To reduce the discrepancy between the source and target domains,a new multi-label adaptation network(ML-ANet)based on multiple kernel variants with maximum mean discrepancies is proposed in this paper.The hidden representations of the task-specific layers in ML-ANet are embedded in the reproducing kernel Hilbert space(RKHS)so that the mean-embeddings of specific features in different domains could be precisely matched.Multiple kernel functions are used to improve feature distribution efficiency for explicit mean embedding matching,which can further reduce domain discrepancy.Adverse weather and cross-camera adaptation examinations are conducted to verify the effectiveness of our proposed ML-ANet.The results show that our proposed ML-ANet achieves higher accuracies than the compared state-of-the-art methods for multi-label image classification in both the adverse weather adaptation and cross-camera adaptation experiments.These results indicate that ML-ANet can alleviate the reliance on fully labeled training data and improve the accuracy of multi-label image classification in various domain shift scenarios.

文摘These problems of nonlinearity, fuzziness and few labeled data were rarely considered in traditional remote sensing image classification. A semi-supervised kernel fuzzy C-means （SSKFCM） algorithm is proposed to overcome these disadvantages of remote sensing image classification in this paper. The SSKFCM algorithm is achieved by introducing a kernel method and semi-supervised learning technique into the standard fuzzy C-means （FCM） algorithm. A set of Beijing-1 micro-satellite＇s multispectral images are adopted to be classified by several algorithms, such as FCM, kernel FCM （KFCM）, semi-supervised FCM （SSFCM） and SSKFCM. The classification results are estimated by corresponding indexes. The results indicate that the SSKFCM algorithm significantly improves the classification accuracy of remote sensing images compared with the others.
文摘A critical problem associated with the southern part of Nigeria is the rapid alteration of the landscape as a result of logging, agricultural practices, human migration and expansion, oil exploration, exploitation and production activities. These processes have had both positive and negative effects on the economic and socio-political development of the country in general. The negative impacts have led not only to the degradation of the ecosystem but also posing hazards to human health and polluting surface and ground water resources. This has created the need for the development of a rapid, cost effective and efficient land use/land cover (LULC) classification technique to monitor the biophysical dynamics in the region. Due to the complex land cover patterns existing in the study area and the occasionally indistinguishable relationship between land cover and spectral signals, this paper introduces a combined use of unsupervised and supervised image classification for detecting land use/land cover (LULC) classes. With the continuous conflict over the impact of oil activities in the area, this work provides a procedure for detecting LULC change, which is an important factor to consider in the design of an environmental decision-making framework. Results from the use of this technique on Landsat TM and ETM+ of 1987 and 2002 are discussed. The results reveal the pros and cons of the two methods and the effects of their overall accuracy on post-classification change detection.

文摘To achieve online automatic classification of product is a great need of e-commerce de-velopment. By analyzing the characteristics of product images, we proposed a fast supervised image classifier which is based on class-specific Pyramid Histogram Of Words (PHOW) descriptor and Im-age-to-Class distance (PHOW/I2C). In the training phase, the local features are densely sampled and represented as soft-voting PHOW descriptors, and then the class-specific descriptors are built with the means and variances of distribution of each visual word in each labelled class. For online testing, the normalized chi-square distance is calculated between the descriptor of query image and each class-specific descriptor. The class label corresponding to the least I2C distance is taken as the final winner. Experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and quickness of our method in the tasks of product clas-sification.

文摘Hyperspectral image classification stands as a pivotal task within the field of remote sensing,yet achieving highprecision classification remains a significant challenge.In response to this challenge,a Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm(AFLA-SCNN)is proposed.The Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm(AFLA)constitutes a novel metaheuristic algorithm introduced herein,encompassing three new strategies:Adaptive weight factor,Gaussian mutation,and probability update policy.With adaptive weight factor,the algorithmcan adjust theweights according to the change in the number of iterations to improve the performance of the algorithm.Gaussianmutation helps the algorithm avoid falling into local optimal solutions and improves the searchability of the algorithm.The probability update strategy helps to improve the exploitability and adaptability of the algorithm.Within the AFLA-SCNN model,AFLA is employed to optimize two hyperparameters in the SCNN model,namely,“numEpochs”and“miniBatchSize”,to attain their optimal values.AFLA’s performance is initially validated across 28 functions in 10D,30D,and 50D for CEC2013 and 29 functions in 10D,30D,and 50D for CEC2017.Experimental results indicate AFLA’s marked performance superiority over nine other prominent optimization algorithms.Subsequently,the AFLA-SCNN model was compared with the Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Fick’s Law Algorithm(FLA-SCNN),Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Harris Hawks Optimization(HHO-SCNN),Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based onDifferential Evolution(DE-SCNN),SpectralConvolutionalNeuralNetwork(SCNN)model,and SupportVector Machines(SVM)model using the Indian Pines dataset and PaviaUniversity dataset.The experimental results show that the AFLA-SCNN model outperforms other models in terms of Accuracy,Precision,Recall,and F1-score on Indian Pines and Pavia University.Among them,the Accuracy of the AFLA-SCNN model on Indian Pines reached 99.875%,and the Accuracy on PaviaUniversity reached 98.022%.In conclusion,our proposed AFLA-SCNN model is deemed to significantly enhance the precision of hyperspectral image classification.
