Hyperspectral image classification (HSIC) has garnered increasing attention among researchers. While classical networks like convolution neural networks (CNNs) have achieved satisfactory results with the advent of deep learning, they are confined to processing local information. Vision transformers, despite being effective at establishing long-distance dependencies, face challenges in extracting high-representation features for high-dimensional images. In this paper, we present the multiscale efficient attention with enhanced feature transformer (MEA-EFFormer), which is designed for the efficient extraction of spectral–spatial features, leading to effective classification. MEA-EFFormer employs a multiscale efficient attention feature extraction module to initially extract 3D convolution features and applies effective channel attention to refine spectral information. Following this, 2D convolution features are extracted and integrated with local binary pattern (LBP) spatial information to augment their representation. Then, the processed features are fed into a spectral–spatial enhancement attention (SSEA) module that facilitates interactive enhancement of spectral–spatial information across the three dimensions. Finally, these features undergo classification through a transformer encoder. We evaluate MEA-EFFormer against several state-of-the-art methods on three datasets and demonstrate its outstanding HSIC performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Online surface inspection systems have gradually found applications in industrial settings. However, the manual effort required to sift through a vast amount of data to identify defect images remains costly. This study delves into a self-supervised binary classification algorithm for addressing the task of defect image classification within ductile cast iron pipe (DCIP) images. Leveraging the CutPaste-Mix data augmentation strategy, we combine defect-free data with enhanced data to input into a deep convolutional neural network. Through Gaussian Density Estimation, we compute anomaly scores to achieve the classification of abnormal regions. Our approach has been implemented in real-world scenarios, involving equipment installation, data collection, and experimentation. The results demonstrate the robust performance of our method, in both the DCIP image dataset and practical field application, achieving an impressive 99.5 AUC (Area Under Curve). This presents a cost-effective means of providing data support for subsequent DCIP surface inspection model training. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
