Extensions and Modi cations of the Kohonen-SOM and Applications in Remote Sensing Image Analysis

چکیده
Utilization of remote sensing multiand hyperspectral imagery has shown a rapid increase in many areas of economic and scienti c signi cance over the past ten years. Hyperspectral sensors, in particular, are capable of capturing the detailed spectral signatures that uniquely characterize a great number of diverse surface materials. Interpretation of these very high-dimensional signatures, however, has proved an insurmountable challenge for many traditional classi cation, clustering and visualization methods. This chapter presents spectral image analyses with Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs). Several recent extensions to the original Kohonen SOM are discussed, emphasizing the necessity of faithful topological mapping for correct interpretation. The effectiveness of the presented approaches is demonstrated through case studies on real-life multiand hyperspectral images.

متن کاملSelf-Organizing Map-based Applications in Remote Sensing
Remote sensing involves the collection of information about an object from a distance. Often remote-sensing instruments are mounted onboard an airor space-borne platform and typically record electromagnetic energy in specific wavelength intervals, or bands. The electromagnetic energy recorded over a given area contains information about surfaces reflecting or emitting energy. This information c...
