Explainability Feature Bands Adaptive Selection for Hyperspectral Image Classification by Jirui Liu, Jinhui Lan, Yiliang Zeng, Wei Luo, Zhixuan Zhuang, Jinlin Zou

“…Aiming at the problems of poor interpretability of feature classification algorithms for hyperspectral images, multiple feature dimensions, and difficulty in effectively improving classification accuracy, this paper proposes a feature band adaptive selection method for hyperspectral images. The proposed feature band adaptive selection model focuses on the joint salient feature regions of the hyperspectral image, visualizes the feature contribution of the bands, more intuitively reveals the selection basis of the feature bands of the hyperspectral features in the process of deep learning, and selects the feature bands with high contribution to carry out classification experiments for verification. …”
