Memory-Guided Adaptive Spectral–Spatial Perception Model for Hyperspectral Image Classification

Accurate hyperspectral image classification is fundamental to geospatial applications but is often constrained by annotation scarcity. To achieve high classification performance under small-sample conditions, we propose the Memory-Guided Adaptive Spectral–Spatial Perception model, which incorporates a three-level globalization strategy. At the single-sample level, an adaptive perception Transformer combines deformable and dilated convolutions with a Transformer encoder to capture global context from individual samples. At the intra-batch level, we introduce a metric learning strategy that explicitly captures structural dependencies and feature relationships among samples within each mini-batch, enabling comprehensive feature aggregation in a localized context. At the cross-batch level, a memory-guided strategy constructs a dynamic memory bank to store and retrieve features from same-class samples across training iterations, bridging past and present distributions to enhance generalization. Using only 1% of the SaliLMSS, Pavia University and Kennedy Space Center datasets and 0.5% of the WHU-LongKou dataset as training samples, our method achieves outstanding overall accuracy of 96.15%, 97.81%, 89.22% and 99.32%, respectively, outperforming existing methods.
