Abstract

As hyperspectral remote sensing technology continues to advance, classification approaches using hyperspectral images (HSIs) have become increasingly important in earth target identification, mineral mapping, and environmental management. The strength of HSIs lies in their capacity to provide a detailed understanding of a target's composition. However, challenges such as high dimensionality, redundancy in HSI datasets, and potential class imbalances complicate their effective utilization. In this study, a novel framework combining graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) and graph-regularized sparse coding (GSC), referred to as GCNN-GSC, is proposed to address these challenges in HSI-based earth target classification. HSIs often exhibit irregular spatial structures, making traditional grid-based methods less effective. GCNNs excel in handling irregular grids, making them well-suited for hyperspectral data where spatial pixel arrangements deviate from regular patterns. GSC complements GCNNs by mitigating high dimensionality through compact and informative feature representation. To evaluate the efficacy of the proposed approach, a comparative study was conducted using key performance metrics, including overall accuracy, per-class accuracy, and Cohen's Kappa coefficient. The results demonstrate that GCNN-GSC outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving notable improvements across multiple benchmark datasets. Specifically, for the Indian Pines dataset, GCNN-GSC achieved increases of 5.74%, 5.49%, and 7.89% in Cohen's Kappa coefficient, per-class accuracy, and overall accuracy, respectively. Similar enhancements were observed for the Kennedy Space Center, Pavia University, and Houston 2013 datasets, with respective improvements of 6.58%, 6.55%, and 6.15% in Cohen's Kappa coefficient; 6.24%, 6.30%, and 5.57% in per-class accuracy; and 6.24%, 6.54%, and 6.30% in overall accuracy. These results underscore the robustness and effectiveness of GCNN-GSC in hyperspectral image classification tasks.
利用图卷积神经网络和图正则化稀疏编码增强高光谱图像中的地球目标分类
随着高光谱遥感技术的不断发展,利用高光谱图像(hsi)进行分类的方法在地球目标识别、矿物制图和环境管理等方面变得越来越重要。hsi的优势在于它们能够提供对目标成分的详细了解。然而,诸如HSI数据集的高维、冗余和潜在的类不平衡等挑战使它们的有效利用复杂化。本文提出了一种结合图卷积神经网络(GCNNs)和图正则化稀疏编码(GSC)的新框架,即GCNN-GSC,以解决基于高分辨率地球目标分类中的这些挑战。hsi通常表现出不规则的空间结构,使得传统的基于网格的方法不太有效。GCNNs擅长处理不规则网格,使其非常适合空间像素排列偏离规则模式的高光谱数据。GSC通过紧凑和信息丰富的特征表示来减轻高维性,从而补充了gcnn。为了评估所提出方法的有效性,使用关键性能指标进行了比较研究,包括总体精度、每类精度和Cohen’s Kappa系数。结果表明,GCNN-GSC优于最先进的方法,在多个基准数据集上取得了显著的改进。具体而言,对于Indian Pines数据集,GCNN-GSC在Cohen’s Kappa系数、每类精度和总体精度上分别提高了5.74%、5.49%和7.89%。肯尼迪航天中心、帕维亚大学和休斯顿2013年数据集也观察到类似的增强,Cohen’s Kappa系数分别提高了6.58%、6.55%和6.15%;每类准确率分别为6.24%、6.30%和5.57%;总体准确率分别为6.24%、6.54%和6.30%。这些结果强调了GCNN-GSC在高光谱图像分类任务中的鲁棒性和有效性。
