(Semi-) Supervised Probabilistic Principal Component Analysis for Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Image Classification

In this paper, we have applied supervised probabilistic principal component analysis (SPPCA) and semi-supervised probabilistic principal component analysis (S 2 PPCA) for feature extraction in hyperspectral remote sensing imagery. The two models are all based on probabilistic principal component analysis (PPCA) using EM learning algorithm. SPPCA only relies on the labeled samples into the projection phase, while S 2 PPCA is able to incorporate both the labeled and unlabeled information. Experimental results on three real hyperspectral images demonstrate the SPPCA and S 2 PPCA outperform some conventional feature extraction methods for classifying hyperspectral remote sensing image with low computational complexity.
