Abstract
Cross-scene classification is one of the major challenges for hyperspectral image (HSI) classification, especially for target scenes without label samples. Most traditional domain adaptive methods learn a domain invariant subspace to reduce statistical shift while ignoring the fact that there may not exist a shared subspace when marginal distributions of source and target domains are very different. In addition, it is important for HSI classification to preserve discriminant information in the original space. To solve this issue, discriminative cooperative alignment (DCA) of subspace and distribution is proposed to cooperatively reduce the geometric and statistical shift. In the proposed framework, both geometrical and statistical alignments are considered to learn subspaces of the two domains with preserving discrimination information. Furthermore, a reconstruction constraint is imposed to enhance the robustness of subspace projection. Experimental results on three cross-scene HSI data sets demonstrate that the proposed DCA is significantly better than some state-of-the-art domain-adaptive approaches.
