Polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (PolSAR) image classification has played an important role in PolSAR data application. Deep learning has achieved great success in PolSAR image classification over the past years. However, when the labeled training dataset is insufficient, the classification results are usually unsatisfactory. Furthermore, the deep learning approach is based on hierarchical features, which is an approach that cannot take full advantage of the scattering characteristics in PolSAR data. Hence, it is worthwhile to make full use of scattering characteristics to obtain a high classification accuracy based on limited labeled samples. In this paper, we propose a novel semi-supervised classification method for PolSAR images, which combines the deep learning technique with the traditional scattering trait-based classifiers. Firstly, based on only a small number of training samples, the classification results of the Wishart classifier, support vector machine (SVM) classifier, and a complex-valued convolutional neural network (CV-CNN) are used to conduct majority voting, thus generating a strong dataset and a weak dataset. The strong training set are then used as pseudo-labels to reclassify the weak dataset by CV-CNN. The final classification results are obtained by combining the strong training set and the reclassification results. Experiments on two real PolSAR images on agricultural and forest areas indicate that, in most cases, significant improvements can be achieved with the proposed method, compared to the base classifiers, and the improvement is approximately 3–5%. When the number of labeled samples was small, the superiority of the proposed method is even more apparent. The improvement for built-up areas or infrastructure objects is not as significant as forests.
