Abstract

In recent years, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved excellent performance in hyperspectral image classification and have been widely used. However, the convolution kernel used in traditional CNN has the limitation of single scale, which is not conducive to the improvement of hyperspectral classification performance. In addition, training a classification network of high-dimensional data based on limited labeled samples is still one of the challenges of hyperspectral image classification. To solve the above problems, a hyperspectral image classification method based on expansion convolution network (ECNet) is proposed. The expansion convolution injects holes into the standard convolution kernel to expand the receptive field (RF), so as to extract more context features. Because the shallow features of hyperspectral images contain more location and detail information, while the deep features contain stronger semantic information, in order to further enhance the correlation between deep and shallow information, inspired by ResNet, a similar feedback block (SFB) is introduced on the basis of ECNet, and the deep features and shallow features are fused through this feedback mechanism. Thus, an improved version of ECNet method is obtained, which is called feedback ECNet (FECNet). This study was tested on four commonly used hyperspectral datasets [i.e., Indian Pine (IP), Pavia University (UP), Kennedy Space Center (KSC), and Salinas Valley (SV)] and on a higher resolution and complexly distributed land cover dataset (University of Houston (HT). The experimental results show that the proposed method has better classification performance than some state-of-the-art methods, which shows that FECNet has a certain potential in hyperspectral image classification.
