In this paper, the problem of the spatial-spectral classification of very high-resolution optical images is addressed using a kernel- A nd region-based approach. A novel method based on integrating region-based or object-based information into a kernel machine is developed. A Gaussian process model is used to characterize each segment in a segmentation map and to define a region-based admissible kernel accordingly. This kernel is combined with a marker-controlled watershed segmentation that incorporates scale adaptivity. Spatialspectral fusion capabilities are also ensured by combining the resulting classification method with composite kernels.

Abstract
In this paper, the problem of the spatial-spectral classification of very high-resolution optical images is addressed using a kernel- A nd region-based approach. A novel method based on integrating region-based or object-based information into a kernel machine is developed. A Gaussian process model is used to characterize each segment in a segmentation map and to define a region-based admissible kernel accordingly. This kernel is combined with a marker-controlled watershed segmentation that incorporates scale adaptivity. Spatialspectral fusion capabilities are also ensured by combining the resulting classification method with composite kernels.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
