Classification of Remote Sensing Data With Morphological Attribute Profiles: A decade of advances

Abstract

Morphological attribute profiles (APs) are among the most prominent methods for spatial-spectral pixel analysis of remote sensing images. Since their introduction a decade ago to tackle land cover classification, many studies have been contributed to the state of the art, focusing not only on their application to a wider range of tasks but also on their performance improvement and extension to more complex Earth observation data.
