Popis: As an extremely efficient preprocessing tool, superpixels have become more and more popular in various computer vision tasks. Nevertheless, there are still several drawbacks in the application of hyperspectral image (HSl) processing. Firstly, it is difficult to directly apply superpixels because of the high dimension of HSl information. Secondly, existing superpixel algorithms cannot accurately classify the HSl objects due to multi-scale feature categorization. For the processing of high-dimensional problems, we use the principle of PCA to extract three principal components from numerous bands to form three-channel images. In this paper, a novel superpixel algorithm called Seed Extend by Entropy Density (SEED) is proposed to alleviate the seed point redundancy caused by the diversified content of HSl. It also focuses on breaking the dilemma of manually setting the number of superpixels to overcome the difficulty of classification imprecision caused by multi-scale targets. Next, a space–spectrum constraint model, termed Hyperspectral Image Classification via superpixels and manifold learning (SMALE), is designed, which integrates the proposed SEED to generate a dimensionality reduction framework. By making full use of spatial context information in the process of unsupervised dimension reduction, it could effectively improve the performance of HSl classification. Experimental results show that the proposed SEED could effectively promote the classification accuracy of HSI. Meanwhile, the integrated SMALE model outperforms existing algorithms on public datasets in terms of several quantitative metrics.
