Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We propose an unsupervised adaptive PolSAR land classification system using quaternion neural networks. Most of the existing PolSAR land classification systems use a set of feature information that humans designed beforehand. However, such methods will face limitations in the near future when we expect classification into a large number of land categories recognizable to humans. By using quaternion auto-encoder, our proposed system extracts feature information based on the natural distribution of PolSAR features. Then, we show that the extracted features are classified by the quaternion SOM in an unsupervised manner. As a result, we can discover even new and more detailed land categories.
