Computational intelligence is a very active and fruitful research of artificial intelligence with a broad spectrum of applications. Remote sensing data has been a salient field of application of computational intelligence algorithms, both for the exploitation of the data and for the research/development of new data analysis tools. In this editorial paper we provide the setting of the special issue "Computational Intelligence in Remote Sensing" and an overview of the published papers. The 11 accepted and published papers cover a wide spectrum of applications and computational tools that we try to summarize and put in perspective in this editorial paper.
Keywords: Hyperspectral images; classification; computational intelligence; evolutionary computation; feature extraction; radar; remote sensing.
