Study on the classification of multi-spectral images based on a FSVM multi-class classifier with the binary tree

Abstract:

Due to the features of the multi-spectral images, the result with the usual methods based on the support vector machine (SVM) and binary tree is not satisfactory. In this paper, a fuzzy SVM multi-class classifier with the binary tree is proposed for the classification of multi-spectral images. The experiment is conducted on a multi-spectral image with 6 bands which contains three classes of terrains. The experimental results show that this method can improve the segmentation accuracy.
