Recently, a series of deep learning methods based on the convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been introduced for classification of hyperspectral images (HSIs). However, in order to obtain the optimal parameters, a large number of training samples are required in the CNNs to avoid the overfitting problem. In this paper, a novel method is proposed to extend the training set for deep learning based hyperspectral image classification. First, given a small-sample-size training set, the principal component analysis based edge-preserving features (PCA-EPFs) and extended morphological attribute profiles (EMAPs) are used for HSI classification so as to generate classification probability maps. Second, a large number of pseudo training samples are obtained by the designed decision function which depends on the classification probabilities. Finally, a deep feature fusion network (DFFN) is applied to classify HSI with the training set consists of the original small-sample-size training set and the added pseudo training samples. Experiments performed on several hyperspectral data sets demonstrate the state-of-the-art performance of the proposed method in terms of classification accuracies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a novel shift-invariant dual-tree complex shearlet transform (SIDCST) is constructed and applied to infrared and visible image fusion. Firstly, the mathematical morphology is used for the source images. Then, the images are decomposed by SIDCST to obtain the low frequency sub-band coefficients and high frequency sub-band coefficients. For the low frequency sub-band coefficients, a novel sparse representation (SR)-based fusion rule is presented. For the high frequency sub-band coefficients, a scheme based on the theory of adaptive dual-channel pulse coupled neural network (2APCNN) is presented, and the energy of edge is used for the external input of 2APCNN. Finally, the fused image is obtained by performing the inverse SIDCST. The experimental results show that the proposed approach can obtain state-of-the-art performance compared with conventional image fusion methods in terms of both objective evaluation criteria and visual quality.
