Abstract
Band selection (BS) aims to choose a salient subset implied sufficient information from the numerous bands, which supplies a significantly efficient way to alleviate the barrier of dimensionality disaster for hyperspectral image classification (HSIC). This letter develops a semisupervised BS approach based on dual-constrained low-rank representation BS (DCLRR-BS) with two regularizations for HSIC. To be specific, a low-rank representation model is first proposed with super-pixel and imbalanced class-wise constraints, which are explicitly integrated to improve the performance of the band description. Next, the clusters are built adaptively based on graph theory in an unsupervised manner to rapid selection efficiency. A selection criterion is last designed to highlight the prominent band of each subset cluster to fulfill the BS procedure. Experimental results conducted on four types of classifiers with two real hyperspectral image (HSI) data sets demonstrate that the proposed DCLRR-BS method performs well in the imbalanced HSIC area.
