Recently, multimodal cloud samples are utilized to learn completed feature representations for cloud classification. However, the existing methods neglect the related information from other multimodal cloud samples in the learning process, which leads to inadequate learning. In this article, we propose a novel deep model to learn heterogeneous deep features (HDFs) for multimodal ground-based remote sensing cloud classification. Specifically, we first design the convolutional neural network (CNN) extractor to combine the visual information and the multimodal information (MI) to obtain the CNN-based features of multimodal cloud samples. Afterward, we treat the CNN-based features of multimodal cloud samples as the nodes of graph, and utilize the similarity between nodes as the adjacency matrix. We feed the graph and the adjacency matrix into the graph convolutional network (GCN) extractor to obtain the GCN-based features that could capture correlations among multimodal cloud samples using graph convolutional layers. After obtaining CNN-based features and GCN-based features, we concatenate the two kinds of heterogeneous features to represent the multimodal cloud samples. As a result, the concatenated feature contains the visual information, the MI and the related information among multimodal cloud samples. We conduct a series of experiments on the multimodal ground-based cloud database (MGCD), and the experimental results verify that the proposed HDF outperforms state-of-the-art methods. |
