ABSTRACT

Wetland mapping plays a crucial role in monitoring wetland ecosystems, water resource management, and habitat suitability assessment. Wetland classification remains significantly challenging due to the diverse types, intricate spatial patterns, and highly dynamic nature. This study proposed a dynamic hybrid method that integrated feature selection and object-oriented ensemble model construction to improve wetland mapping using Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data. The proposed feature selection approach integrates the ReliefF and recursive feature elimination (RFE) algorithms with a feature evaluation criterion based on Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) values, aiming to optimize the feature set composed of various variables. During the construction of ensemble models (i.e., RF, XGBoost, and LightGBM) with features selected by RFE, hyperparameter tuning is subsequently conducted using Bayesian optimization (BO), ensuring that the selected optimal features and hyperparameters significantly enhance the accuracy and performance of the classifiers. The accuracy assessment demonstrates that the BO-LightGBM model with ReliefF-RFE-SHAP-selected features achieves superior performance to the RF and XGBoost models, achieving the highest overall accuracy of 89.4% and a kappa coefficient of 0.875. The object-oriented classification maps accurately depict the spatial distribution patterns of different wetland types. Furthermore, SHAP values offer global and local interpretations of the model to better understand the contribution of various features to wetland classification. The proposed dynamic hybrid method offers an effective tool for wetland mapping and contributes to wetland environmental monitoring and management.
