Deep-learning-based methods have been widely used in hyperspectral image classification. In order to solve the problems of the excessive parameters and computational cost of 3D convolution, and loss of detailed information due to the excessive increase in the receptive field in pursuit of multi-scale features, this paper proposes a lightweight hybrid convolutional network called the 3D lightweight receptive control network (LRCNet). The proposed network consists of a 3D depthwise separable convolutional network and a receptive field control network. The 3D depthwise separable convolutional network uses the depthwise separable technique to capture the joint features of spatial and spectral dimensions while reducing the number of computational parameters. The receptive field control network ensures the extraction of hyperspectral image (HSI) details by controlling the convolution kernel. In order to verify the validity of the proposed method, we test the classification accuracy of the LRCNet based on three public datasets, which exceeds 99.50% The results show that compare with state-of-the-art methods, the proposed network has competitive classification performance.
