Hyperspectral image classification incorporating bacterial foraging-optimized spectral weighting
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The present paper describes the development of a hyperspectral image classification scheme using support vector machines (SVM) with spectrally weighted kernels. The kernels are designed during the training phase of the SVM using optimal spectral weights estimated using the Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO) algorithm, a popular modern stochastic optimization algorithm. The optimized kernel functions are then in the SVM paradigm for bi-classification of pixels in hyperspectral images. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is demonstrated by implementing it on three widely used benchmark hyperspectral data sets, two of which were taken over agricultural sites at Indian Pines, Indiana, and Salinas Valley, California, by the Airborne Visible Infra-Red Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The third dataset was acquired using the Reflective Optical System Imaging Spectrometer (ROSIS) over an urban scene at Pavia University, Italy to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach in an urban scenario as well as with agricultural data. Classification errors for One-Against-One (OAO) and classification accuracies for One-Against-All (OAA) schemes were computed and compared to other methods developed in recent times. Finally, the use of the BFO-based technique is recommended owing to its superior performance, in comparison to other contemporary stochastic bio-inspired algorithms.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
