Course on “Hyperspectral Images Analysis”

A course on “HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGES ANALYSIS” will be held at the Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (Recife, Brazil) from the 17th to the 21st of March. Prof. Jose Manuel Amigo Rubio (Dept. of Food Science, Quality & Technology, Faculty of Life Sciences, University of Copenhagen) will be the instructor.

The program consists of: Basic screening of images (regions of interest, the multivariate approach); Pre-processing (spatial pre-processing, spectral pre-processing, image compression); Exploration of images (Principal Component Analysis, Evolving factor analysis on images); Resolution of images. Multivariate Curve Resolution (MCR on images, constraints, interpretation of results, augmented MCR); Regression models on images (multivariate regression models, validation of regression models on images); Segmentation (Cluster analysis, SIMCA, PLS-DA, from pixel-based solution to global object identification); Features extraction (Features extraction from images, domain statistics, fractals on images, the concept of homogeneity).
