Compared to the conventional approach where the validation set included target and outlier pixels selected visually and randomly, the validation set derived from WVS-SVDD constructed a tightened hypersphere because of the compact constraint by the outlier pixels which were located neighboring to the target class in the spectral feature space. The overall accuracies for wheat and bare land achieved were as high as 89.25% and 83.65%, respectively. However, target class was underestimated because the validation set covers only a small fraction of the heterogeneous spectra of the target class. The different window sizes were then tested to acquire more wheat pixels for validation set. The results showed that classification accuracy increased with the increasing window size and the overall accuracies were higher than 88% at all window size scales. Moreover, WVS-SVDD showed much less sensitivity to the untrained classes than the multi-class support vector machine (SVM) method. Therefore, the developed method showed its merits using the optimal parameters, tradeoff coefficient (C) and kernel width (s), in mapping homogeneous specific land cover.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s17050960","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,26]],"date-time":"2017-04-26T13:42:06Z","timestamp":1493214126000},"page":"960","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Support Vector Data Description Model to Map Specific Land Cover with Optimal Parameters Determined from a Window-Based Validation Set"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Jinshui","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, Beijing Normal University, State Key Laboratory of Earth Surface Processes and Resource Ecology, Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"Department of Resources Science and Technology, Beijing Normal University, College of Resources Science and Technology, Beijing 100875, China"}]},{"given":"Zhoumiqi","family":"Yuan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, Beijing Normal University, State Key Laboratory of Earth Surface Processes and Resource Ecology, Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"Department of Resources Science and Technology, Beijing Normal University, College of Resources Science and Technology, Beijing 100875, China"}]},{"given":"Guanyuan","family":"Shuai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI 48824, USA"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2307-2715","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yaozhong","family":"Pan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, Beijing Normal University, State Key Laboratory of Earth Surface Processes and Resource Ecology, Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"Department of Resources Science and Technology, Beijing Normal University, College of Resources Science and Technology, Beijing 100875, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6660-2034","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xiufang","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geography, Beijing Normal University, State Key Laboratory of Earth Surface Processes and Resource Ecology, Beijing 100875, China"},{"name":"Department of Resources Science and Technology, Beijing Normal University, College of Resources Science and Technology, Beijing 100875, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"30","article-title":"Next generation of global land cover characterization, mapping, and monitoring","volume":"25","author":"Giri","year":"2013","journal-title":"Int.
