Abstract  

Supervised classification methods usually require adequate labeled samples which are difficult and time-consuming to obtain for polarimetric SAR images, while the expression capability of the shallow structure learning algorithm is limited. A novel supervised classification method for polarimetric SAR imagery based on active deep learning is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the features are extracted from an original image by multiple polarization target decomposition methods for fully describing the data,and the features which are separable and invariable can be extracted with unsupervised learning by auto-encoder. Then, the initial classifier is trained and fine-tune the whole model with a small number of labeled samples. Finally, the most valuable samples (the largest ambiguity samples for classifier)are selected to label by active learning. Experimental results in comparison with conventional methods for polarimetric SAR data sets of RADARSAT-2 and EMISAR show that the proposed method can achieve higher classification accuracy with a small number of labeled samples.
