We propose a quantum version of the well known minimum distance classification model called Nearest Mean Classifier (NMC). In this regard, we presented our first results in two previous works. First, a quantum counterpart of the NMC for two-dimensional problems was introduced, named Quantum Nearest Mean Classifier (QNMC), together with a possible generalization to any number of dimensions. Seco...

multi-spectral remotely sensed data is useful information source for the detection of surface changes and change detection is a major application of the remotely sensed data. this study is conducted to investigate capability of sensor liss-iii of irs-p6resource satellite data for providing land cover map, in najm abad of savojbolagh region with 20000 ha area. the images of 26th june, 2006 were ...

soil salinity has been a large problem in arid and semi arid regions. preparation of such maps is useful for natural resource managers. old methods of preparing such maps require a lot of time and cost. multi-spectral remotely sensed dates due to the broad vision and repeating of these imageries is suitable for provide saline soil maps. this investigation is conducted to provide saline soil map...

The minimum-distance classifier summarizes each class with a prototype and then uses a nearest neighbor approach for classification. Three drawbacks of the original minimum-distance classifier are its inability to work with symbolic attributes, weigh attributes, and learn more than a single prototype for each class. The proposed solutions to these problems include defining the mean for symbolic...

This paper empirically compares two algorithms for classifying remotely sensed images: The minimum-distance classifier and peer group pixels based spatial classifier. The minimum-distance classifier is a per-pixel classifier. The spatial classifier incorporates contextual information by using the average of the pixels from a peer group of each pixel and classifying this pixel into one of severa...
