Olanloye, Dauda Odunayo . An Intelligent System for Soil Classification using Unsupervised Learning Aproach. International Journal of Computer Applications. 105, 11 ( November 2014), 21-27. DOI=10.5120/18422-9724
The traditional soil analysis technique when applied is time consuming, labour intensive and expensive. The research made an attempt to develop an intelligent system that is capable of classifying soil in a particular location if the hyperspectral data of such location is available. The system was developed using unsupervised learning. Wavelet transform was used to denoise the spectral signal at preprocessing stage. Fuzzy c- means was used for clustering in other to identify the cluster centre. KSOM is applied for the purpose of classifying soil into various classes. The system was implemented using R programming language.
