SpectralTrain: A Universal Framework for Hyperspectral Image Classification
Two new research papers introduce novel frameworks for hyperspectral image classification. SpectralTrain offers a universal, architecture-agnostic training method that integrates curriculum learning with PCA-based spectral downsampling to improve learning efficiency and reduce computational costs. Separately, SS-MixNet presents a lightweight deep learning model that combines 3D convolutional layers with parallel MLP-style mixer blocks to capture long-range spectral-spatial dependencies, achieving high accuracy with limited labeled data.
