As the number of spectral bands of high spectral resolution data increases, the capability to detect more detailed classes should also increase, and the classification accuracy should increase as well. Often, it is impossible to access enough training pixels for supervise classification. For this reason, the performance of traditional classification methods isn't useful. In this paper, we propose a new model for classification that operates based on decision fusion. In this classifier, learning is performed at two steps. In first step, only training samples are used and in second step, this classifier utilizes semilabeled samples in addition to original training samples. At the beginning of this method, spectral bands are categorized in several small groups. Information of each group is used as a new source and classified. Each of this primary classifier has special characteristics and discriminates the spectral space particularly. With using of the benefits of all primary classifiers, it is made sure that the results of the fused local decisions are accurate enough. In decision fusion center, some rules are used to determine the final class of pixels. This method is applied to real remote sensing data. Results show classification performance is improved, and this method may solve the limitation of training samples in the high dimensional data and the Hughes phenomenon may be mitigated.

An Image fusion, or Pansharpening is a methodology of increasing the spatial resolution of image with low-spatial resolution using high-spatial resolution images. In this paper, we have performed an image fusion of hyperspectral imagery by using panchromatic image with high-spatial resolution, multispectral and hyperspectral images with low-spatial resolution, which had been acquired by ALI and Hyperion of EO-1 satellite sensors. The study has been mainly focused on evaluating performance of fusion process following to the image fusion methodology of the block association, which had applied to ALI and Hyperion dataset by considering spectral characteristics between multispectral and hyperspectral images. The results from experiments have been identified that the proposed algorithm efficiently improved the spatial resolution and minimized spectral distortion comparing with results from a fusion of the only panchromatic and hyperspectral images and the existing block-based fusion method. Through the study in a proposed algorithm, we could concluded in that those applications of airborne hyperspectral sensors and various hyperspectral satellite sensors will be launched at future by enlarge its usages.

This study aims to evaluate performance of various image fusion methods based on the spectral responses of high-resolution optical satellite sensors such as KOMPSAT-2, QuickBird and WorldView-2. The image fusion methods used in this study are GIHS, GIHSA, GS1 and AIHS. A quality evaluation of each image fusion method was performed with both quantitative and visual analysis. The quantitative analysis was carried out using spectral angle mapper index (SAM), relative global dimensional error (spectral ERGAS) and image quality index (Q4). The results indicates that the GIHSA method is slightly better than other methods for KOMPSAT-2 images. On the other hand, the GS1 method is suitable for Quickbird and WorldView-2 images.

The main objective of this paper is to investigate the potential utility of multisensor remotely sensed data for improved coastal wetland mapping. Five data fusion models, three algebraic models (Multiplicative (MT), Brovey (BT) and Wavelet transform (WT)) and two spectral domain models (Principals component transform (PCT) and Intensity-Hue-Saturation (IHS)) were implemented and tested over the multisensor data. The fused images were then compared based on visual and statistical approaches. The results show that the wavelet transform provides greater flexibility for combining optical data sets and has good potential for preserving the spatial and spectral content of the original images . However, this model yields poor information when combining optical and microwave data. Brovey transform is more reliable for fusing optical and microwave image data and yields improved information about different wetland features of the coastal zone.

With rapid land development, land category should be updated on a regular basis. However, manual field surveys have certain limitations. In this study, attempts were made to extract a feature vector considering spectral signature by parcel, PIMP (Percent Imperviousness), texture, and VIs (Vegetation Indices) based on RapidEye satellite image and cadastral map. A total of nine land categories in which feature vectors were significantly extracted from the images were selected and classified using SVM (Support Vector Machine). According to accuracy assessment, by comparing the cadastral map and classification result, the overall accuracy was 0.74. In the paddy-field category, in particular, PO acc. (producer's accuracy) and US acc. (user's accuracy) were highest at 0.85 and 0.86, respectively.

This study compared effects of spatial resolution ratio in image fusion by Korea Multi-Purpose SATellite 2 (KOMPSAT II), also known as Arirang-2. Image fusion techniques, also called pansharpening, are required to obtain color imagery with high spatial resolution imagery using panchromatic and multi-spectral images. The higher quality satellite images generated by an image fusion technique enable interpreters to produce better application results. Thus, image fusions categorized in 3 domains were applied to find out significantly improved fused images using KOMPSAT 2. In addition, all fused images were evaluated to satisfy both spectral and spatial quality to investigate an optimum fused image. Additionally, this research compared Pixel-Based Image Analysis (PBIA) with the GEOgraphic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA) to make better classification results. Specifically, a roof top of building was extracted by both image analysis approaches and was finally evaluated to obtain the best accurate result. This research, therefore, provides the effective use for very high resolution satellite imagery with image interpreter to be used for many applications such as coastal area, urban and regional planning.

This paper proposes an opportunistic reporting-based sensing-reporting-throughput optimization scheme that maximizes the spectral efficiency of secondary users (SUs) in cooperative cognitive radio networks with a soft combining rule. The performance of cooperative spectrum sensing depends on the sensing time, the reporting time of transmitting sensing results, and the fusion scheme. While longer sensing time and reporting time improve the sensing performance, this shortens the allowable data transmission time, which in turn degrades the spectral efficiency of SUs. The proposed scheme adopts an opportunistic reporting scheme to restrain the reporting overhead and it jointly controls the sensing-reporting overhead in order to increase the spectral efficiency of SUs. We show that there is a trade-off between the spectral efficiency of SUs and the overheads of cooperative spectrum sensing. The numerical results demonstrate that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms the conventional sensing-throughput optimization schemes when there are many SUs. Moreover, the numerical results show that the sensing-reporting time should be jointly optimized in order to maximize the spectral efficiency of SUs.

In this paper, we propose a geostatistical approach incorporated to the Bayesian data fusion technique for supervised classification of multi-sensor remote sensing data. Traditional spectral based classification cannot account for the spatial information and may result in unrealistic classification results. To obtain accurate spatial/contextual information, the indicator kriging that allows one to estimate the probability of occurrence of classes on the basis of surrounding observations is incorporated into the Bayesian framework. This approach has its merit incorporating both the spectral information and spatial information and improves the confidence level in the final data fusion task. To illustrate the proposed scheme, supervised classification of multi-sensor test remote sensing data set was carried out.

In this study, we proposed a new promising idea of utilizing moving window principal component analysis (MWPCA) as a sensitive diagnostic tool to detect the presence of peak position shift. In this approach, the moving window is constructed from a small data segment along the wavenumber axis. For each window bound by a narrow wavenumber region, separate PCA analysis was applied. Simulated spectra with complex spectral feature variations were analyzed to explore the possibility of MWPCA technique. This MWPCA-based detection of the peak shift, potentially coupled with 2D correlation analysis to provide additional verification, may offer an attractive solution.
