We present a textural kernel for "support vector machines" classification applied to remote sensing problems. SVMs constitute a method of supervised classification well adapted to deal with data of high dimension, such as images. We introduce kernel functions in order to favor the distinction between our class of interest and the other classes: it gives information of similarity. In our case this similarity is based on radiometric and textural characteristics. One of the main difficulties is to elaborate textural parameters which are relevant and characterize as well as possible the joint distribution of a set of connected pixels. We apply this method to remote sensing problems: the detection of forest fires and the extraction of urban areas in high resolution images.
