Polarimetric SAR Feature Extraction With Neighborhood Preservation-Based Deep Learning

As an advanced nonlinear technique, deep learning, which is based on deep neural networks (DNNs), has attracted considerable attentions. In this paper, we propose a novel neighborhood preserved deep neural network (NPDNN) for polarimetric synthetic aperture radar feature extraction and classification. The spatial relation between pixels is exploited by a jointly weighting strategy. Not only the spatial neighbors but also the pixels in the same...
