ABSTRACT
Hyperspectral images (HSI) contain a wide range of information, the most prominent technology for observing the earth. However, using an original HSI high-dimensional datacube, the classification task faces significant challenges since it has a high computational cost. As a result, dimensionality reduction is indispensable. A dimension reduction method has been introduced in this paper, including feature extraction and feature selection to obtain feature subsets. Minimum Noise Fraction (MNF) is a popular feature extraction method for HSI, requiring a high computational capability. We propose a segmented MNF that divides the complete HSI into groups utilising normalised cross-cumulative residual entropy (nCCRE). An nCCRE-based feature selection is also employed to improve the quality of the chosen features using the max-relevancy min-redundancy measure. The support vector machine (SVM) classifier is used on two real HSI to evaluate the efficiency of the extracted subsets.
