Multi-Feature Kernel Based Classification for Hyperspectral Remote Sens-ing Image
Kernel function is an important clement which can absolutely affect the ability of Support Vector Machine(SVM),most of kernel functions are made of spectral distance only today,and they of-ten ignore the spectral angle which is an important feature of an image.This paper proposes a SVM classifier who's kernel is made of multi-feature Equalized Spectral Angle and Distance(ESAD),and classes Pavia University,Italy with ROSIS hyperspectral data which was gotten in 2003 with that.It al-so evaluates the accuracy of the classified image.It turns that the ESAD kernel SVM gets the overall accuracy increased by 8.88%and 11.03%comparing with spectral angle kernel SVM and spectral distance kernel SVM,the accuracy is optimistic and the method can solve the problem of"different ob-jects with same spectral curve"during image classifying.
