Abstract Traditional hyperspectral image (HSI) classification methods typically use the spectral features and do not make full use of the spatial or other features of the HSI. To address this problem, this paper proposes a novel HSI classification method based on a multi-feature fusion strategy. The spectral-spatial features are first extracted by spectral-spatial feature learning (SSFL), which is a deep hierarchical architecture. Additionally, the texture features of the local binary pattern (LBP) image are applied and fused with the spectral-spatial features. Then, the kernel extreme learning machine (KELM) is used to classify the hyperspectral images. The results of a number of experiments show that the proposed method effectively improves the classification accuracy of hyperspectral images.
