Framework For Automatic Selection Of Kernels Based On Convolutional Neural Networks And Ckmeans Clustering Algorithm

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) can learn deep feature representation for hyperspectral imagery (HSI) interpretation and attain excellent accuracy of classification if we have many training samples. Due to its superiority in feature representation, several works focus on it, among which a reliable classification approach based on CNN, used filters generated from cluster framework, like k Means algorithm, yielded good results. However, the kernels number to be manually assigned. To solve this problem, a HSI classification framework based on CNN, where the convolutional filters to be adaptatively learned from the data, by grouping without knowing the cluster number, has recently proposed. This framework, based on the two algorithms CNN and kMeans, showed high accuracy results. So, in the same context, we propose an architecture based on the depth convolution al neural networks principle, where kernels are adaptatively learned, using CkMeans network, to generate filters without knowing the number of clusters, for hyperspectral classification. With adaptive kernels, the proposed framework automatic kernels selection by CkMeans algorithm (AKSCCk) achieves a better classification accuracy compared to the previous frameworks. The experimental results show the effectiveness and feasibility of AKSCCk approach.
