Title
Sparse Subspace Clustering-Based Feature Extraction for PolSAR Imagery Classification.
Abstract
Features play an important role in the learning technologies and pattern recognition methods for polarimetric synthetic aperture (PolSAR) image interpretation. In this paper, based on the subspace clustering algorithms, we combine sparse representation, low-rank representation, and manifold graphs to investigate the intrinsic property of PolSAR data. In this algorithm framework, the features are projected through the projection matrix with the sparse or/and the low rank characteristic in the low dimensional space. Meanwhile, different kinds of manifold graphs explore the geometry structure of PolSAR data to make the projected feature more discriminative. Those learned matrices, that are constrained by the sparsity and low rank terms can search for a few points from the samples and capture the global structure. The proposed algorithms aim at constructing a projection matrix from the subspace clustering algorithms to achieve the features benefiting for the subsequent PolSAR image classification. Experiments test the different combinations of those constraints. It demonstrates that the proposed algorithms outperform other state-of-art linear and nonlinear approaches with better quantization and visualization performance in PolSAR data from spaceborne and airborne platforms.
