Hyperspectral Image Classification Based on Attentional Residual Networks by Ning Wang, Xin Pan, Xiaoling Luo, Xiaojing Gao

“…Aiming at the problem that the features extracted by the existing convolutional neural Network model are insufficient and the more important information lacks key Attention in the process of hyperspectral image classification, this paper designs an Attention Residual Network (ARN). Firstly, the residual network is used to extract the features of hyperspectral images, and the quality of feature extraction is effectively improved by solving the problem of gradient disappearance and gradient explosion in deep neural network training. …”
