This research proposes a novel semi-supervised approach to image segmentation, leveraging remote sensing data with multiple bands and textures to segment land cover subregions. By creating a high-dimensional feature space, the authors use t-SNE to project this data onto a 3D embedding. They then introduce RBF-CCA, a modified canonical correlation analysis algorithm that learns an associated projection matrix using only a small labelled dataset. The resulting canonical variables are applied using k-means clustering to achieve excellent segmentation results on remotely sensed multispectral images.

Imagine trying to sort different types of land cover into categories, like forests, fields, and buildings. This can be a big challenge because each pixel in an image might have slightly different features that help distinguish between these categories. To make this process easier, researchers developed a new way to segment images using remote sensing data. They started by creating a special feature space where they could analyze all the pixels together. Then, they used a technique called t-SNE to shrink this space down to just three dimensions. Next, they created a special algorithm that used some labeled examples to figure out how to group similar pixels together. Finally, they applied this algorithm to several different images and got great results!
