| Summary: | In this thesis, 2D Local Discriminant Bases (LDB) algorithm is used to 2D search structure to classify remotely sensed data. 2D Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) method is converted into an M-ary classifier by combining majority voting principle and linear distance parameters. The feature extraction algorithm extracts the relevant features by removing the irrelevant ones and/or combining the ones which do not represent supplemental information on their own. The algorithm is implemented on a remotely sensed airborne data set from Tippecanoe County, Indiana to evaluate its performance. The spectral and spatial-frequency features are extracted from the multispectral data and used for classifying vegetative species like corn, soybeans, red clover, wheat and oat in the data set.
