Multi-channel descriptors and ensemble of Extreme Learning Machines for classification of remote sensing images

作者:

Highlights:

• An accurate method for real-time remote image classification.

• It avoids the time-consuming descriptor learning step as well as kernelized classifiers.

• The method combines multi-channel Gabor-based descriptors and an ensemble of ELM.

• The developed Gabor-based descriptor outperforms conventional grayscale BGP.

• Outperfoms Linear SVM and V-ELM, and has lower complexity than kernelized SVM.
