  • In this paper, a novel semi-supervised classification method based on the Neighborhood Minimum Spanning Tree (NMST) is proposed to solve the Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) terrain classification when labeled samples are few. Combining the idea of self-training method and spatial information of the pixels in PolSAR image, a new help-training sample selection strategy based on spatial neighborhood information is proposed, named as NMST, to select the high reliable unlabeled samples to enlarge the training set and improve the base classifier. Finally, the PolSAR image is classified by this improved classifier. The experiments results tested on three PolSAR data sets show that the proposed method achieves a better performance than existing classification methods when the number of labeled samples is few.
