Abstract
Band selection (BS) is a key method in Hyperspectral image (HSI) classification that helps to reduce the computational burden and improve the class separability. However, with the emerging of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-borne HSI datasets, their attributes such as high spatial and spectral resolution as well as large-scale samples pose serious challenges to the existing BS methods, making them inefficient. In addition, the efficient utilization of the prior knowledge from the data collected by fixed UAV-borne sensors in different regions is often easily overlooked. In view of these issues, this paper proposes a neural network-assisted particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for cross-domain BS of UAV-borne HSIs. First, a knowledge learning strategy is designed for the source domain, which applies a neural network model to learn the useful prior knowledge in labeled source domain data. Then, a network-assisted PSO algorithm is introduced to search for the optimal subset of bands in the target domain under the guidance of the valid prior knowledge captured from the source domain by the network model. Moreover, a similarity-based grouping strategy is designed to group similar bands and then select bands from each group with the aims of reducing the redundant information in the subset of bands. Finally, experimental results on three common UAV-borne HSI datasets show that our proposed method can efficiently handle UAV-borne HSI data with large samples, as it is able to find a subset of bands with higher quality compared to several state-of-the-art BS methods.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
