#### **Classification of Hyperspectral Images by SVM Using a Composite Kernel by Employing Spectral, Spatial and Hierarchical Structure Information**

*Yi Wang and Hexiang Duan*

This paper introduce a classification framework for hyperspectral images (HSIs) by jointly employing spectral, spatial, and hierarchical structure information where the three types of information are integrated into the SVM classifier in conjunction with multiple kernels.
