Abstract
Classification is a crucial task in various remote sensing applications. While edge is one of the most important characteristics in the high-resolution remote-sensing images, which helps much for the improvement of classification accuracy. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an unsupervised classification method by incorporating edge information into a clustering procedure. Firstly, a consistency coefficient function, which indicates the similarity between edges obtained by clustering and by the edge detection methods, is defined to guarantee more accurate edges. Sequentially, a clustering procedure based on HMRFFCM is designed, in which the edge constraints are exploited by using the edge consistency. Experiments on synthetic and real remote sensing images have shown that the proposed methods can get more accurate classification results.
