Resumo

Stochastic distances combined with Minimum Distance method for region-based classification of Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) image was successfully verified in Silva et al. (2013). Methods like K-Nearest Neighbors may also adopt stochastic distances and then used in a similar purpose. The present study investigates the use of kernel methods for PolSAR region-based classification. For this purpose, the Jeffries-Matusita stochastic distance between Complex Multivariate Wishart distributions is integrated in a kernel function and then used in Support Vector Machine and Graph-Based kernel methods. A case study regarding PolSAR remote sensing image classification is carried to assess the above mentioned methods. The results show superiority of kernel methods in comparison to the other analyzed methods.
