Shrnutí:The multisource data fusion technique has been proven to perform better in crop classification. However, traditional fusion methods simply stack the original source data and their corresponding features, which can be only regarded as a superficial fusion method rather than deep fusion. This paper proposes a pixel-level fusion method for multispectral data and dual polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) data based on the polarization extension, which yields synthetic quad PolSAR data. Then we can generate high-dimensional features by means of various polarization decomposition schemes. High-dimensional features usually cause the curse of the dimensionality problem. To overcome this drawback in crop classification using the end-to-end network, we propose a simple network, namely the full tensor decomposition network (FTDN), where the feature extraction in the hidden layer is accomplished by tensor transformation. The number of parameters of the FTDN is considerably fewer than that of traditional neural networks. Moreover, the FTDN admits higher classification accuracy by making full use of structural information of PolSAR data. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the fusion method and the FTDN model.
