Thanks Kyle! I'm certainly interested in any followup suggestions you may have. I probably could send a sample, labeled map. They are not publicly available yet, but eventually they will be on a web site in near-real-time. During our so-called "proving ground" phase, we are using NASA SDO/AIA

If differences in the labels correspond to borders in the image, then you should try a superpixel base approach. Run SLIC from skimage and see if you would be ok with labeling each of the resulting superpixels with a single label (you may need to adjust the number of superpixels produced -- oh a

Other lists of techniques to look at: Convolutional Neural Networks are another approach to image classification. This goes outside the realm of sklearn, but has been used successfully on some fairly complex data. For example, I have some code at https://github.com/kastnerkyle/kaggle-cifar10 which

Hi, Apologies if this is an inappropriate question for this forum. I have a collection of (1024x1024) mono-chromatic images in which each pixel is to be labeled as 1 of several categories (e.g., 10). Furthermore, each mono-chromatic image was captured through several filters (e.g., 5). My
