However, these methods often rely on vectorized data representations, and fail to fully exploit the inherent higher-order tensor structure of HSI data. In this paper, we propose a tensor-based dimensionality reduction (DR) method called spatial-spectral neighborhood tensor graph embedding (SNTGE) for HSI classification. First, we introduce a local region covariance distance (LRCD) to measure the similarity between different tensor samples, aiding in the selection of effective neighbors for graph construction. Next, we construct a spectral neighborhood tensor graph based on the spectral correlations between training samples, and a spatial neighborhood tensor graph utilizing the spatial consistency inherent in HSI. Finally, the spectral and spatial neighborhood tensor graphs are combined to enhance the aggregation of HSI data. As a result, the proposed SNTGE method effectively captures discriminative features and improves classification performance for HSI data. Experimental results on two hyperspectral datasets demonstrate the efficiency and superiority of SNTGE over several state-of-the-art DR methods.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17283,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The Franklin Institute-engineering and Applied Mathematics","volume":"362 13","pages":"Article 107862"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144713683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Secondly, an asymmetric nonlinear mapping (ANM) is proposed to deal with asymmetric time-varying output constraints. The ANM method overcomes the limitation of barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) method by circumventing the challenge of radial unboundedness associated with BLFs, providing an innovative solution for stabilizing non-Lipschitzian stochastic systems subject to output constraints.

In the lifting-based dual-mode framework, the steady-state requirement on minimum triggering can be achieved by driving the system state into a (maximal) positively invariant set constructed based on a large-sized lifted model, for which a new self-triggering mechanism is also proposed to plan a sequence of moments of triggering in transient (that takes place more frequently than in steady state if needed).
