Table 1

A comparison of different methods for hyperspectral image classification.

Segmentation-based methodsObject-based classificationPixon-based classifierThe noise pixels in the classification map were removed and the suitable land cover smoothing map was obtainedThe spectral characteristics of abnormal pixels are often similar to the background, resulting in the loss of information when the abnormal pixels are removed
