While several AL approaches do exist for pixel-based training library generation and for hyperspectral image classification, there is no standard training library generation strategy for OOIA of very high spatial resolution images. Given a sufficient number of training samples, supervised classification is the method of choice for image classification. However, this strategy becomes computationally expensive with the increase in the number of classes or the number of images to be classified. The above-mentioned issue is solved in this proposed method, where an optimized training library of objects (superpixels) is generated based on a batch mode AL approach. A softmax classifier is used as a detector in this method, which helps in determining the right samples to be chosen for library updation. To this end, we construct a multiclassifier system with max-voting decision to classify an image at pixel level. This algorithm was applied on three different very high-resolution airborne data sets, each with varying complexity in terms of variations in geographical context, sensors, illumination, and view angles. Our method has empirically outperformed the traditional OOIA by producing equivalent accuracy with a training library that is orders of magnitude smaller. In addition, the most distinctive ability of the algorithm is experienced in the most heterogeneous data set, where its performance in terms of accuracy is around twice the performance of the traditional method in the same situation. The generality of this classification strategy is proved through its performance on multispectral images and for cross-domain application. Finally, the robustness of this method is identified by comparing its performance with an alternative AL approach-self-learning-based semisupervised SVM. The capability of the proposed method to handle highly heterogeneous data is identified as the primary reason for its robustness.
