Abstract

Hyperspectral images (HSIs) are typically utilized in a wide variety of practical applications. HSI is replete with spatial and spectral information, which provides precise data for material detection. HSIs are characterized by a high degree of variations and undesirable pixel distributions, providing major processing challenges. This article introduces the fast hyperspectral image classification (FHIC) model, a rapid model for classifying HSIs and resolving their associated challenges. It uses the enhancing transformation reduction (ETR) method to address the HSI difficulties and enhance classes’ differentiation. It also uses exponential linear units (ELUs) to smooth and speed the classification processing. The structure of the FHIC model is designed to be very flexible and suitable for a range of HSIs. The model reduced execution time and RAM consumption, and provided superior performance compared to seven of the most advanced analysis models for three well-known HSIs. In some cases, it was 60% faster than other models. In addition, this work presents a new and highly effective method for measuring the performance of the compared models in terms of their accuracy and processing speed to provide an easy evaluation method. The code of the FHIC model is available at this link: https://github.com/DalalAL-Alimi/FHIC.
