Semi-Supervised Graph-Based Hyperspectral Image Classification

This paper presents a semi-supervised graph-based method for the classification of hyperspectral images. The method is designed to handle the special characteristics of hyperspectral images, namely, high-input dimension of pixels, low number of labeled samples, and spatial variability of the spectral signature. To alleviate these problems, the method incorporates three ingredients, respectively. First, being a kernel-based method, it combats the curse of dimensionality efficiently. Second, following a semi-supervised approach, it exploits the wealth of unlabeled samples in the image, and naturally gives relative importance to the labeled ones through a graph-based methodology. Finally, it incorporates contextual information through a full family of composite kernels. Noting that the graph method relies on inverting a huge kernel matrix formed by both labeled and unlabeled samples, we originally introduce the Nystro umlm method in the formulation to speed up the classification process. The presented semi-supervised-graph-based method is compared to state-of-the-art support vector machines in the classification of hyperspectral data. The proposed method produces better classification maps, which capture the intrinsic structure collectively revealed by labeled and unlabeled points. Good and stable accuracy is produced in ill-posed classification problems (high dimensional spaces and low number of labeled samples). In addition, the introduction of the composite-kernel framework drastically improves results, and the new fast formulation ranks almost linearly in the computational cost, rather than cubic as in the original method, thus allowing the use of this method in remote-sensing applications.
