Abstract
En 中文
Hyperspectral images (HSI) contain a great number of bands, which enable better characterization of features. However, the huge dimension and information volume brought by the abundant bands may give rise to negative influence on the efficiency of subsequent processing on hyperspectral images. Band selection (BS) is a commonly adopted to reduce the dimension of HSIs. Different from the previous work, in this paper, hyperspectral band selection problem is formulated as a multi-objective optimization problem, where the band distribution uniformity among the selected bands and inter-class separation distance from a few labeled samples are optimized simultaneously. To fully exploit the relation between the band subsets with different sizes, we construct a multi-objective evolutionary multi-tasking algorithm for hyperspectral band selection (namely MEMT-HBS) to achieve the selected band subsets for all the selected band sizes in one run. To implement MEMT-HBS, the intra-task pairwise learning based solution generation strategy is suggested to evolve the population for each task to achieve high-quality offspring whose selected band size is restricted to a fixed scope. The inter-task band coverage based knowledge transferring strategy is utilized to choose useful individuals from adjacent tasks to further enhance the performance of current task. Compared with the state-of-the-art semi-supervised and unsupervised BS algorithms, empirical results on different standard hyperspectral datasets show that our proposed MEMT-HBS can determine the superior band subset which has a higher image classification accuracy over the comparison algorithms.
