In this paper, we propose a self-learning and self-improving adaptive classifier to mitigate the problem of small training sample size that can severely affect the recognition accuracy of classifiers when the dimensionality of the multispectral data is high. This proposed adaptive classifier utilizes classified samples (referred as semilabeled samples) in addition to original training samples i...

In this paper, we study the use of unlabeled samples in reducing the problem of small training sample size that can severely affect the recognition rate of classifiers when the dimensionality of the multispectral data is high. We show that by using additional unlabeled samples that are available at no extra cost, the performance may be improved, and therefore the Hughes phenomenon can be mitiga...
