The hyperspectral remote sensor acquires hundreds of contiguous spectral images, resulting in large data that contain a significant amount of redundant information. This high-dimensional and redundant data always influence the efficiency of the data processing. Therefore, feature extraction becomes one of the critical tasks in hyperspectral image classification. A transform-domain-based feature extraction technique, three-dimensional discrete cosine transform (3-D DCT), is proposed. The reason behind the transform domains is that, generally, an invertible linear transform reconstructs the image data to provide the independent information about the spectra or more separable transformation coefficients. Moreover, DCT has excellent energy compaction properties for highly correlated images, such as hyperspectral images, which reduces the complexity of the separation significantly. Unlike the discrete wavelet transform that requires sequential transform to obtain the approximation and detailed coefficients, DCT extracts all coefficients simultaneously. As a result, computation time in the feature extraction can be reduced. The experimental results on three benchmark datasets (Indian Pines, Pavia University, and Salinas) show that the proposed approach produces a good classification in terms of overall accuracy, average accuracy as well as Cohen’s kappa coefficient (κ) when compared with some traditional as well as transform-based feature extraction algorithms. Experimental result also shows that the proposed method requires less computational time than the transform-based feature extraction method.
