International audience In this paper, a technique based on Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and morphological attribute filters is presented for the classification of high geometrical resolution hyperspectral images. The ICA is computed instead of the conventional principal component analysis (PCA) in order to better model the information in the hyperspectral image. The spatial characteristics of the objects in the scene are modeled by different multi-level attribute filters. Moreover, a method for increasing the robustness of the analysis based on a decision fusion strategy is proposed. A hyperspectral high resolution image acquired over the city of Pavia (Italy) was considered in the experiments.
