  This paper presents a new supervised classification algorithm for remotely
sensed hyperspectral image (HSI) which integrates spectral and spatial
information in a unified Bayesian framework. First, we formulate the HSI
classification problem from a Bayesian perspective. Then, we adopt a
convolutional neural network (CNN) to learn the posterior class distributions
using a patch-wise training strategy to better use the spatial information.
Next, spatial information is further considered by placing a spatial smoothness
prior on the labels. Finally, we iteratively update the CNN parameters using
stochastic gradient decent (SGD) and update the class labels of all pixel
vectors using an alpha-expansion min-cut-based algorithm. Compared with other
state-of-the-art methods, the proposed classification method achieves better
performance on one synthetic dataset and two benchmark HSI datasets in a number
of experimental settings.
