This letter presents the hyperspectral imagery (HSI) noisy label detection using a spectral angle and the local outlier factor (SALOF) algorithm. The noisy label is caused by a mislabeled training pixel, and thus, noisy training samples mixed with correct and incorrect labels are formed in the supervised classification. The LOF algorithm is first used in the noisy label detection of the HSI to improve the supervised classification accuracy. The proposed method SALOF mainly includes the following steps. First, $k$ nearest neighbors of different training samples of each class are calculated based on the spectral angle mapper. Second, the reachability distance and local reachability density of all training samples are obtained. Third, the LOF is determined among different classes of training samples. Then, a segmentation threshold of the LOF is established to achieve an abnormal probability of these training samples. Finally, the support vector machines are applied to measure the detection efficiency of the proposed method. The experiments performed on the Kennedy Space Center data set demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively detect noisy labels.
