Title
Mean-Shift And Hierarchical Clustering For Textured Polarimetric Sar Image Segmentation/Classification
Abstract
Image segmentation and unsupervised classification are difficult problems. We propose to combine both. A clustering process is applied over segment mean values. Only large segments are considered. The clustering is composed of a mean-shift step and a hierarchical clustering step. The hierarchical grouping is based upon a powerful segmentation technique previously developed [1]. The approach is applied on a 9-look polarimetric SAR image. Textured and non-textured image regions are considered. The K and Wishart distributions are used respectively. The unsupervised classification results can be very useful for image analysis and further supervised classification. The obtained region groups constitute an important simplification of the image.
