Hyperspectral Image Shadow Enhancement Using Three-Dimensional Dynamic Stochastic Resonance and Classification Based on ResNet

Abstract

Classification is an important means of extracting rich information from hyperspectral images (HSIs). However, many HSIs contain shadowed areas, where noise severely affects the extraction of useful information. General noise removal may lead to loss of spatial correlation and spectral features. In contrast, dynamic stochastic resonance (DSR) converts noise into capability that enhances the signal in a way that better preserves the image’s original information. Nevertheless, current one-dimensional and 2D DSR methods fail to fully utilize the tensor properties of hyperspectral data and preserve the complete spectral features. Therefore, a hexa-directional differential format is derived in this paper to solve the system’s output, and the iterative equation for HSI shadow enhancement is obtained, enabling 3D parallel processing of HSI spatial–spectral information. Meanwhile, internal parameters are adjusted to achieve optimal resonance. Furthermore, the residual neural network 152 model embedded with the convolutional block attention module is proposed to diminish information redundancy and leverage data concealed within shadow areas. Experimental results on a real-world HSI demonstrate the potential performance of 3D DSR in enhancing weak signals in HSI shadow regions and the proposed approach’s effectiveness in improving classification.
