However, owing to the noise of observation systems and the ever-changing external observation environments, the observed asteroid spectral data always contain noise and outliers exhibiting indivisible pattern characteristics, which will bring great challenges to the precise classification of asteroids. In order to alleviate the problem and to improve the separability and classification accuracy for different kinds of asteroids, this paper presents a novel Neighboring Discriminant Component Analysis (NDCA) model for asteroid spectrum feature learning. The key motivation is to transform the asteroid spectral data from the observation space into a feature subspace wherein the negative effects of outliers and noise will be minimized while the key category-related valuable knowledge in asteroid spectral data can be well explored. The effectiveness of the proposed NDCA model is verified on real-world asteroid reflectance spectra measured over the wavelength range from 0.45 to 2.45 \u03bcm, and promising classification performance has been achieved by the NDCA model in combination with different classifier models, such as the nearest neighbor (NN), support vector machine (SVM) and extreme learning machine (ELM).<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13163306","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,22]],"date-time":"2021-08-22T22:59:27Z","timestamp":1629673167000},"page":"3306","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Neighboring Discriminant Component Analysis for Asteroid Spectrum Classification"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7741-6352","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tan","family":"Guo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology, Macau University of Science and Technology, Taipa, Macau 999078, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Lunar and Planetary Sciences, Macau University of Science and Technology, Taipa, Macau 999078, China"},{"name":"School of Communication and Information Engineering, Chongqing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Chongqing 400065, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2363-4175","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiao-Ping","family":"Lu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology, Macau University of Science and Technology, Taipa, Macau 999078, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Lunar and Planetary Sciences, Macau University of Science and Technology, Taipa, Macau 999078, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yong-Xiong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Information Technology, Macau University of Science and Technology, Taipa, Macau 999078, China"},{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Lunar and Planetary Sciences, Macau University of Science and Technology, Taipa, Macau 999078, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Keping","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Global Information and Telecommunication Institute, Waseda University, Tokyo 169-8050, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Zhang, Y., Jiang, J., and Zhang, G.
