dc.descriptionThis work was partially funded by FCT Strategic Program UID/EEA/00066/203 of the Center of Technologies and System (CTS) of UNINOVA-Institute for the Development of new Technologies. It is also partially based on work from COST Action TD1403 "Big Data Era in Sky and Earth Observation", supported by COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology).
dc.description.abstractThis article discusses how computational intelligence techniques are applied to fuse spectral images into a higher level image of land cover distribution for remote sensing, specifically for satellite image classification. We compare a fuzzy-inference method with two other computational intelligence methods, decision trees and neural networks, using a case study of land cover classification from satellite images. Further, an unsupervised approach based on k-means clustering has been also taken into consideration for comparison. The fuzzy-inference method includes training the classifier with a fuzzy-fusion technique and then performing land cover classification using reinforcement aggregation operators. To assess the robustness of the four methods, a comparative study including three years of land cover maps for the district of Mandimba, Niassa province, Mozambique, was undertaken. Our results show that the fuzzy-fusion method performs similarly to decision trees, achieving reliable classifications; neural networks suffer from overfitting; while k-means clustering constitutes a promising technique to identify land cover types from unknown areas.en
