In recent years, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been introduced for pixel-wise hyperspectral image (HSI) classification tasks. However, some problems of the CNNs are still insufficiently addressed, such as the receptive field problem, small sample problem, and feature fusion problem. To tackle the above problems, we proposed a two-branch convolutional neural network with a polarized full attention mechanism for HSI classification. In the proposed network, two-branch CNNs are implemented to efficiently extract the spectral and spatial features, respectively. The kernel sizes of the convolutional layers are simplified to reduce the complexity of the network. This approach can make the network easier to be trained and fit the network to small sample size conditions. The one-shot connection technique is applied to improve the efficiency of feature extraction. An improved full attention block, named polarized full attention, is exploited to fuse the feature maps and provide global contextual information. Experimental results on several public HSI datasets confirm the effectiveness of the proposed network. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
