contents Hyperspectral images offer extensive spectral information about ground objects across multiple spectral bands. However, the large volume of data can pose challenges during processing. Typically, adjacent bands in hyperspectral data are highly correlated, leading to the use of only a few selected bands for various applications. In this work, we present a correlation-based band selection approach for hyperspectral image classification. Our approach calculates the average correlation between bands using correlation coefficients to identify the relationships among different bands. Afterward, we select a subset of bands by analyzing the average correlation and applying a threshold-based method. This allows us to isolate and retain bands that exhibit lower inter-band dependencies, ensuring that the selected bands provide diverse and non-redundant information. We evaluate our proposed approach on two standard benchmark datasets: Pavia University (PA) and Salinas Valley (SA), focusing on image classification tasks. The experimental results demonstrate that our method performs competitively with other standard band selection approaches.
