Abstract

We have developed an automated feature detection/classification system, called GENetic Imagery Exploitation a (GENIE), which has been designed to generate image processing pipelines for a variety of feature detection/classification tasks. GENiE is a hybrid evolutionary algorithm that addresses the general problem of finding features of interest in multispectral remotely-sensed images. We describe our system in detail together with experiments involving comparisons of GENIE with several conventional supervised classification techniques, for a number of classification tasks using multispectral remotely sensed imagery.
