Hyperspectral Data Feature Extraction Using Deep Learning Hybrid Model

Abstract

The original hyperspectral data served as the initial features has the characteristics of high dimension and redundancy, which is not suitable for the subsequent analysis, so extracting feature information is needed. The deep learning model has a strong ability in feature learning, but if the model has too many layers which will lead to the original information loss in the process of layer-by-layer feature learning and reduce the subsequent classification accuracy. To solve this problem, the paper proposed a deep learning model of hybrid structure with the contractive autoencoder and restricted boltzmann machine to extract the hyperspectral data feature information. First, through pre-processing the spectral data, the 2d spectrum data is converted into a one dimensional vector. Then, a hybrid model is constructed for unsupervised training and supervised learning for the hyperspectral data, and features are extracted from bottom to top gradually according to the hybrid model. Finally, the SVM classifier is adopted to enhance the classification ability of spectral data. The paper uses the hybrid model proposed to test for extracting features with two sets of AVIRIS data and compares with PCA and GCA methods. The experiment results show that the feature extraction algorithm based on hybrid depth model can get the better features, and have strong distinguish performance, and can get better classification accuracy by the SVM algorithm.
