Abstract
En 中文
Multispectral images such as multispectral chemical images or multispectral satellite images provide detailed data with information in both the spatial and spectral domains. Many segmentation methods for multispectral images are based on a per-pixel classification, which uses only spectral information and ignores spatial information. A clustering algorithm based on both spectral and spatial information would produce better results. In this work, spatial refinement clustering (SpaRef), a new clustering algorithm for multispectral images is presented. Spatial information is integrated with partitional and agglomeration clustering processes. The number of clusters is automatically identified. SpaRef is compared with a set of well-known clustering methods on compact airborne spectrographic imager (CASI) over an area in the Klompenwaard, The Netherlands. The clusters obtained show improved results. Applying SpaRef to multispectral chemical images would be a straight-forward step. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
