A new research paper published on arXiv highlights significant flaws in the standard evaluation methods for hyperspectral image classification. The study found that common practices, such as random pixel splits on datasets like Salinas, lead to inflated accuracy scores because test pixels are often adjacent to training pixels. When a leakage-free evaluation protocol was applied across ten diverse architectures, average Macro-F1 scores dropped by 0.147, and model rankings shifted considerably. The research also identified that many architectures fail to resolve inherent spectral ambiguities within the data, leading to similar misclassification patterns across different models. AI
