Feature extraction is a very important preprocessing step for classification of hyperspectral images. The linear discriminant analysis (LDA) method fails to work in small sample size situations. Moreover, LDA has poor efficiency for non-Gaussian data. LDA is optimized by a global criterion. Thus, it is not sufficiently flexible to cope with the multi-modal distributed data. We propose a new fea...

Effective features can improve the performance of a model and help us understand characteristics underlying structure complex data. Previously proposed feature selection methods usually cannot retain more discriminative information. To address this shortcoming, we propose novel supervised orthogonal least square regression with weighting for selection. The optimization problem objective functio...
