Abstract Hyperspectral image classification stands as a pivotal task within the field of remote sensing, yet achieving high-precision classification remains a significant challenge. In response to this challenge, a Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm (AFLA-SCNN) is proposed. The Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm (AFLA) constitutes a novel metaheuristic algorithm introduced herein, encompassing three new strategies: Adaptive weight factor, Gaussian mutation, and probability update policy. With adaptive weight factor, the algorithm can adjust the weights according to the change in the number of iterations to improve the performance of the algorithm. Gaussian mutation helps the algorithm avoid… More >

Abstract Grassland biomass is an important parameter of grassland ecosystems. The complexity of the grassland canopy vegetation spectrum makes the long-term assessment of grassland growth a challenge. Few studies have explored the original spectral information of typical grasslands in Inner Mongolia and examined the influence of spectral information on aboveground biomass (AGB) estimation. In order to improve the accuracy of vegetation index inversion of grassland AGB, this study combined ground and Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) remote sensing technology and screened sensitive bands through ground hyperspectral data transformation and correlation analysis. The narrow band vegetation indices were calculated, and ground and airborne… More >

Abstract Sanxingdui cultural relics are the precious cultural heritage of humanity with high values of history, science, culture, art and research. However, mainstream analytical methods are contacting and detrimental, which is unfavorable to the protection of cultural relics. This paper improves the accuracy of the extraction, location, and analysis of artifacts using hyperspectral methods. To improve the accuracy of cultural relic mining, positioning, and analysis, the segmentation algorithm of Sanxingdui cultural relics based on the spatial spectrum integrated network is proposed with the support of hyperspectral techniques.

Abstract Using hyperspectral data collected in January and June 2022 from the Sha River, the concentrations of total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) were estimated using the differential method. The results indicate that the optimal bands for estimation vary monthly due to temperature fluctuations. In the TN model, the power function model at 586 nm in January exhibited the strongest fit, yielding a fit coefficient (R²) of 0.95 and F-value of 164.57 at a significance level (p) of less than 0.01. Conversely, the exponential model at 477 nm in June provided the best fit, with R² = 0.93 and F… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Crop diseases have a significant impact on plant growth and can lead to reduced yields. Traditional methods of disease detection rely on the expertise of plant protection experts, which can be subjective and dependent on individual experience and knowledge. To address this, the use of digital image recognition technology and deep learning algorithms has emerged as a promising approach for automating plant disease identification. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that utilizes a convolutional neural network (CNN) model in conjunction with Inception v3 to identify plant leaf diseases. The research focuses on developing a mobile application that leverages… More >

Abstract

The high dimensionalhyperspectral image classification is a challenging task due to the spectral feature vectors. The high correlation between these features and the noises greatly affects the classification performances. To overcome this, dimensionality reduction techniques are widely used. Traditional image processing applications recently propose numerous deep learning models. However, in hyperspectral image classification, the features of deep learning models are less explored. Thus, for efficient hyperspectral image classification, a depth-wise convolutional neural network is presented in this research work. To handle the dimensionality issue in the classification process, an optimized self-organized map model is employed using a water strider optimization… More >

Abstract Hyperspectral images can easily discriminate different materials due to their fine spectral resolution. However, obtaining a hyperspectral image (HSI) with a high spatial resolution is still a challenge as we are limited by the high computing requirements. The spatial resolution of HSI can be enhanced by utilizing Deep Learning (DL) based Super-resolution (SR). A 3D-CNNHSR model is developed in the present investigation for 3D spatial super-resolution for HSI, without losing the spectral content. The 3D-CNNHSR model was tested for the Hyperion HSI. The pre-processing of the HSI was done before applying the SR model so that the full advantage of… More >

Abstract Accurate assessment of canopy carotenoid content (CC_x+cC) in crops is central to monitor physiological conditions in plants and vegetation stress, and consequently supporting agronomic decisions. However, due to the overlap of absorption peaks of carotenoid (C_x+c) and chlorophyll (C_a), accurate estimation of carotenoid using reflectance where carotenoid absorb is challenging. The objective of present study was to assess CC_x+cC in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) with ground- and aircraft-based hyperspectral measurements in the visible and near-infrared spectrum. In-situ hyperspectral reflectance were measured and airborne hyperspectral data were acquired during major growth stages of winter wheat in five consecutive field experiments.… More >

Abstract Spectral unmixing helps to identify different components present in the spectral mixtures which occur in the uppermost layer of the area owing to the low spatial resolution of hyperspectral images. Most spectral unmixing methods are globally based and do not consider the spectral variability among its endmembers that occur due to illumination, atmospheric, and environmental conditions. Here, endmember bundle extraction plays a major role in overcoming the above-mentioned limitations leading to more accurate abundance fractions. Accordingly, a two-stage approach is proposed to extract endmembers through endmember bundles in hyperspectral images. The divide and conquer method is applied as the first… More >
