A method based on tree-structured Markov random field for forest area classification

Abstract: The forest cover classification is extremely important for land use planning and management. In this framework, the application of pixel based classifications of middle resolution images is well assessed while the usefulness of segmentation processes and object classification is still improving.In this paper, a method based on tree-structured Markov random field (TS-MRF) is applied to Landsat TM images in order to assess the capability of the TS-MRF segmentation algorithm for discriminating forest-non forest c… Show more

“…To provide a better and more effective image classification technique, it is important and urgent to study and develop new object-oriented image classification methods that incorporate both raster analysis and vector analysis. Recently, some researchers have succeeded in classification with new object-oriented classification methods adopting Markov random field (MRF) segmentation techniques and maximum likelihood classification (MLC) algorithm (Cuozzo et al 2004). Bruzzone (2004) proposed a multi-level hierarchical approach to classify high spatial resolution images with support vector machine (SVM), and the results and comparisons confirmed the effectiveness of the approach.…”

“…The differences and advantages between a TS-MRF and a flat MRF model is that: 1) TS-MRF uses a binary tree structure for carry out the classification, 2) in each tree node is estimated a binary MRF and all its associated parameters, 3) is a model recursive with fast optimization and 4) capable to split IEEE Catalog Number: CFP08827-CDR ISBN: 978-1-4244-2499-3 Library of Congress: 2008903800 978-1-4244-2499-3/08/$25.00 ©2008 IEEE highly correlated classes. Several works [9], [2], [10], [11] have verified that to use TS-MRF for land cover classification improves the classification accuracy and therefore interpretation.…”

“…Many methods have been applied to hyperspectral image classification in recent years. Early-stage classification methods are support vector machine (SVM) [7], random forest (RF) [8], multiple logistic regression [9] and decision tree [10], which can provide promising classification results. What is more, these classification methods can only extract the shallow feature information of hyperspectral images, which have limited ability to handle the highly nonlinear HSI data and limit the further improvement of their classification accuracy.…”
