description

We propose a new method for the visualization of spectral images. It involves a perception-based spectrum segmentation using an adaptable thresholding of the stretched CIE standard observer colormatching functions. This allows for an underlying removal of irrelevant channels, and, consequently, an alleviation of the computational burden of further processings. Principal Components Analysis is then used in each of the three segments to extract the Red, Green and Blue primaries for final visualization. A comparison framework using two different datasets shows the efficiency of the proposed method.
