Abstract

Designing active learning (AL) techniques to determine informative training samples for hyperspectral image (HSI) classification is an open research issue. In this chapter, several spectral–spatial AL techniques are designed by exploiting both, an interesting approach to fuse spectral and spatial information and different combinations of existing uncertainty and diversity criteria. In order to fuse spectral and spatial information, the dimensionality of HSI is reduced and mean filtering (for incorporation of spatial information) is applied to each component image in the reduced domain of HSI considering multiple windows of different sizes. The filtered images are concatenated with original component images to form an extended spatial profile for the HSI. These spectral–spatial features are used with different combinations of uncertainty and diversity criteria to design several spectral–spatial AL techniques for determining most informative pixels. The experiments carried out on two real HSI data sets show that the spectral–spatial AL methods are more robust than the AL methods based on spectral measurements only.
