Abstract:

Aiming at the lack of effective attention in the process of feature extraction in existing hyperspectral image classification models, a classification model based on hybrid convolution and three-dimensional attention mechanism is proposed. The method realizes the extraction of spatial-spectral features of hyperspectral images by tandem three-dimensioal (3D) convolution and two-dimensional (2D) convolution. An attention mechanism in the 3D convolution stage is designed, and the attention mechanism is implemented in the 3D convolution stage to realize the attention and activation of the effective spatial-spectral features of hyperspectral images while the model is extracting the underlying features. Compared with the traditional 3D convolution-based model, the classification model proposed in this paper reduces the complexity of operations, improves the model's ability to suppress interference noise, and enhances the classification effect. Ablation experiments against the method demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed 3D convolution attention mechanism, and the optimal classification accuracy is achieved in comparison experiments with five other classification models on two publicly available datasets, Indian Pines and Pavia University.

Key words: hyperspectral image classification, three-dimensional attention mechanism, hybrid convolution, spatial-spectral feature extraction
