Hybrid Multi-Strategy Aquila Optimization with Deep Learning Driven Crop Type Classification on Hyperspectral Images

Hyperspectral imaging instruments could capture detailed spatial information and rich spectral signs of observed scenes.Much spatial information and spectral signatures of hyperspectral images(HSIs)present greater potential for detecting and classifying fine crops.The accurate classification of crop kinds utilizing hyperspectral remote sensing imaging(RSI)has become an indispensable application in the agricultural domain.It is significant for the prediction and growth monitoring of crop yields.Amongst the deep learning(DL)techniques,Convolution Neural Network(CNN)was the best method for classifying HSI for their incredible local contextual modeling ability,enabling spectral and spatial feature extraction.This article designs a Hybrid Multi-Strategy Aquila Optimization with a Deep Learning-Driven Crop Type Classification(HMAODL-CTC)algorithm onHSI.The proposed HMAODL-CTC model mainly intends to categorize different types of crops on HSI.To accomplish this,the presented HMAODL-CTC model initially carries out image preprocessing to improve image quality.In addition,the presented HMAODL-CTC model develops dilated convolutional neural network(CNN)for feature extraction.For hyperparameter tuning of the dilated CNN model,the HMAO algorithm is utilized.Eventually,the presented HMAODL-CTC model uses an extreme learning machine(ELM)model for crop type classification.A comprehensive set of simulations were performed to illustrate the enhanced performance of the presented HMAODL-CTC algorithm.Extensive comparison studies reported the improved performance of the presented HMAODL-CTC algorithm over other compared methods.
