Extreme Learning Machine-Based Heterogeneous Domain Adaptation for Classification of Hyperspectral Images

An extreme learning machine (ELM)-based heterogeneous domain adaptation (HDA) algorithm is proposed for the classification of remote sensing images. In the adaptive ELM network, one hidden layer is used for the source data to provide the random features, whereas two hidden layers are set for target data to produce the random features as well as a transformation matrix. DA is achieved by constraining both the source data and the transformed target data to share the same output weights. Moreover, manifold regularization is adopted to preserve the local geometry of unlabeled target data. The proposed ELM-based HDA (EHDA) method is applied to cross-domain classification of remote sensing images, and the experimental results using multisensor remote sensing images demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
