Hyperspectral Image Spectral-Spatial Feature Extraction via Tensor Principal Component Analysis

Abstract

We consider the tensor-based spectral-spatial feature extraction problem for hyperspectral image classification. First, a tensor framework based on circular convolution is proposed. Based on this framework, we extend the traditional principal component analysis (PCA) to its tensorial version tensor PCA (TPCA), which is applied to the spectral-spatial features of hyperspectral image data. The experiments show that the classification accuracy obtained using TPCA features is significantly higher than the accuracies obtained by its rivals.
