Abstract: Hyperspectral remote sensing images terrain classification faces the problems of high data dimensionality and lack of labeled training data, resulting in unsatisfied terrain classification efficiency. The feature extraction is required before terrain classification for preserving discriminative information and reducing data dimensionality. A hyperspectral remote sensing images feature extraction method, i.e., discrete cosine transform (DCT) spectral regression discriminant analysis (SRDA) subspace method, was presented to solve the above problems. The proposed DCT SRDA subspace method firstly takes DCT in the original spectral space and gets the DCT coefficients of each pixel spectral curve; secondly performs SRDA in the DCT coefficients space and obtains the DCT SRDA subspace. Minimum distance classifier was designed in the resulting DCT SRDA subspace to evaluate the feature extraction performance. Experiments for two real airborne visible/infrared imaging spectrometer (AVIRIS) hyperspectral images show that, comparing with spectral LDA subspace method, the proposed DCT SRDA subspace method can improve terrain classification efficiency.
