Abstract

ABSTRACT: Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have strong feature extraction capability, which have been used to extract features from the hyperspectral image. Local binary pattern (LBP) is a simple but powerful descriptor for spatial features, which can lessen the workload of CNNs and improve the classification accuracy. In order to make full use of the feature extraction capability of CNNs and the discrimination of LBP features, a novel classification method combining dual-channel CNNs and LBP is proposed. Specifically, a one-dimensional CNN (1D-CNN) is adopted to process original hyperspectral data to extract hierarchical spectral features and another same 1D-CNN is applied to process LBP features to further extract spatial features. Then, the concatenation of two fully connected layers from the two CNNs, which fused features, is fed into a softmax classifier to complete the classification. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can provide 98.52%, 99.54% and 99.54% classification accuracy on the Indian Pines, University of Pavia and Salinas data, respectively. And the proposed method can also obtain good performance even with limited training samples.
