摘要

Hyperspectral imaging acquired from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offers detailed spectral and spatial data that holds transformative potential for precision agriculture applications, such as crop classification, health monitoring, and yield estimation. However, traditional methods struggle to effectively capture both local and global features, particularly in complex agricultural environments with diverse crop types, varying growth stages, and imbalanced data distributions. To address these challenges, we propose CMTNet, an innovative deep learning framework that integrates convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and Transformers for hyperspectral crop classification. The model combines a spectral-spatial feature extraction module to capture shallow features, a dual-branch architecture that extracts both local and global features simultaneously, and a multi-output constraint module to enhance classification accuracy through cross-constraints among multiple feature levels. Extensive experiments were conducted on three UAV-acquired datasets: WHU-Hi-LongKou, WHU-Hi-HanChuan, and WHU-Hi-HongHu. The experimental results demonstrate that CMTNet achieved overall accuracy (OA) values of 99.58%, 97.29%, and 98.31% on these three datasets, surpassing the current state-of-the-art method (CTMixer) by 0.19% (LongKou), 1.75% (HanChuan), and 2.52% (HongHu) in OA values, respectively. These findings indicate its superior potential for UAV-based agricultural monitoring in complex environments. These results advance the precision and reliability of hyperspectral crop classification, offering a valuable solution for precision agriculture challenges.
