Spectral adaptation of hyperspectral flight lines using VHR contextual information
2014
Abstract: Due to technological constraints, hyperspectral earth observation imagery are often a mosaic of overlapping flight lines collected in different passes over the area of interest. This causes variations in aqcuisition conditions such that the reflected spectrum can vary significantly between these flight lines. Partly, this problem is solved by atmospherical correction, but residual spectral differences often remain. A probabilistic domain adaptation framework based on graph matching using Hidden Markov Random Fields was recently proposed for transforming hyperspectral data from one image to better correspond to the other. This paper investigates the use of scale and angle invariant…
An optical classification tool for global lake waters
2017
Shallow and deep lakes receive and recycle organic and inorganic substances from within the confines of these lakes, their watershed and beyond. Hence, a large range in absorption and scattering and extreme differences in optical variability can be found between and within global lakes. This poses a challenge for atmospheric correction and bio-optical algorithms applied to optical remote sensing for water quality monitoring applications. To optimize these applications for the wide variety of lake optical conditions, we adapted a spectral classification scheme based on the concept of optical water types. The optical water types were defined through a cluster analysis of in situ hyperspectral…
Hyperspectral imager calibration using ceramic color tiles (Conference Presentation)
2019
Sets of chromatic and neutral ceramic tiles are widely used as measurement standards for reflectance factors in color applications. The usual instrument for color measurements is a spectrophotometer that measures the tiles using either a 0:45 or 45:0 illumination and viewing geometry, or with an integrating sphere in order to measure the reflectance factor in either specular excluded or specular included conditions. Having the corresponding measurements of the tile set from a calibrated instrument, systematic errors in the instrument under study can be diagnosed and corrected using a model of the errors and fitting it to the difference in measurements. One such is the Berns-Petersen model, …
Hyperspectral imaging in perfusion and wound diagnostics – methods and algorithms for the determination of tissue parameters
2018
Abstract Blood perfusion is the supply of tissue with blood, and oxygen is a key factor in the field of minor and major wound healing. Reduced perfusion of a wound bed or transplant often causes various complications. Reliable methods for an objective evaluation of perfusion status are still lacking, and insufficient perfusion may remain undiscovered, resulting in chronic processes and failing transplants. Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) represents a novel method with increasing importance for clinical practice. Therefore, methods, software and algorithms for a new HSI system are presented which can be used to observe tissue oxygenation and other parameters that are of importance in supervising…
Multispectral Imaging using a Stereo Camera: Concept, Design and Assessment
2011
This paper proposes a one-shot six-channel multispectral color image acquisition system using a stereo camera and a pair of optical filters. The two filters from the best pair selected from among readily available filters such that they modify the sensitivities of the two cameras in such a way that they produce optimal estimation of spectral reflectance and/or color are placed in front of the two lenses of the stereo camera. The two images acquired from the stereo camera are then registered for pixel-to-pixel correspondence. The spectral reflectance and/or color at each pixel on the scene are estimated from the corresponding camera outputs in the two images. Both simulations and experiments…
Spatially variant dimensionality reduction for the visualization of multi/hyperspectral images
2011
International audience; In this paper, we introduce a new approach for color visu- alization of multi/hyperspectral images. Unlike traditional methods, we propose to operate a local analysis instead of considering that all the pixels are part of the same population. It takes a segmentation map as an input and then achieves a dimensionality reduction adaptively inside each class of pixels. Moreover, in order to avoid unappealing discon- tinuities between regions, we propose to make use of a set of distance transform maps to weigh the mapping applied to each pixel with regard to its relative location with classes' centroids. Results on two hyperspec- tral datasets illustrate the efficiency of…
Validation of a 2D multispectral camera: application to dermatology/cosmetology on a population covering five skin phototypes
2011
International audience; This paper presents the validation of a new multispectral camera specifically developed for dermatological application based on healthy participants from five different Skin PhotoTypes (SPT). The multispectral system provides images of the skin reflectance at different spectral bands, coupled with a neural network-based algorithm that reconstructs a hyperspectral cube of cutaneous data from a multispectral image. The flexibility of neural network based algorithm allows reconstruction at different wave ranges. The hyperspectral cube provides both high spectral and spatial information. The study population involves 150 healthy participants. The participants are classif…
Source separation on hyperspectral cube applied to dermatology
2010
International audience; This paper proposes a method of quantification of the components underlying the human skin that are supposed to be responsible for the effective reflectance spectrum of the skin over the visible wavelength. The method is based on independent component analysis assuming that the epidermal melanin and the dermal haemoglobin absorbance spectra are independent of each other. The method extracts the source spectra that correspond to the ideal absorbance spectra of melanin and haemoglobin. The noisy melanin spectrum is fixed using a polynomial fit and the quantifications associated with it are reestimated. The results produce feasible quantifications of each source compone…
Integration of 3D and multispectral data for cultural heritage applications: Survey and perspectives
2013
International audience; Cultural heritage is increasingly put through imaging systems such as multispectral cameras and 3D scanners. Though these acquisition systems are often used independently, they collect complementary information (spectral vs. spatial) used for the study, archiving and visualization of cultural heritage. Recording 3D and multispectral data in a single coordinate system enhances the potential insights in data analysis. Wepresent the state of the art of such acquisition systems and their applications for the study of cultural her- itage. Wealso describe existing registration techniques that can be used to obtain 3D models with multispec- tral texture and explore the idea…
L'imagerie multispectrale embarquée pour caractériser la croissance et l'état sanitaire du feuillage de la vigne
2015
Multispectral imaging systems are widely used in remote sensing and applied to viticulture context for the canopy characterization. This technique is not used in proximal sensing, to characterize vineyard foliage. Yet the results of field tests led in fixed position have revealed its capacity to estimate the leaf area. The aim of this project is to assess the suitable of a multispectral imaging system as an embedded sensor for vine foliage characterization. To this end, a multispectral camera acquiring visible and near-infrared images and a Greenseeker RT-100 apparatus providing an NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index), were installed on a track laying tractor. It was equipped with …
