Abstract

Investigating the intricate semantics of diverse wetland landscapes is vital for the development of Intelli gent computing systems within remote sensing applications. This study introduces a cutting-edge approach that utilizes memristor-based architectures to integrate multi-channel perceptual visual features for classifying wetland remote sensing images, characterized by complex spatial and ecological structures. Our method leverages a deep hierarchical model designed to emulate human gaze dynamics through a memristor-enabled processing unit, employing the BING objectness metric to accurately detect key ecological features and details across multiple scales within wetland scenes. To enhance the human-like visual attention mechanism, we propose a Memristor-Enhanced Robust Deep Active Learning (MRDAL) strategy, which systematically generates gaze shifting paths (GSPs) and extracts their deep representations using memristor-based networks. A distinctive aspect of MRDAL is its resilience against label noise, achieved through a sparse penalty mechanism embedded within the memristor architecture, effectively filtering out irrelevant GSP features. We subsequently apply a manifold-regularized feature selector (MRFS) integrated with memristive components to extract high-quality deep GSP features, which are then utilized to train a linear Support Vector Machine (SVM) for the classification of wetland scenes. Empirical evaluations reveal the method’s superior performance over conventional models, demonstrating its exceptional capability in discerning complex patterns within a comprehensive dataset of large-scale wetland remote sensing images. This advancement highlights the potential of memristor-based intelligent computing technologies for ecological monitoring and environmental analysis.
