Multispectral bioluminescence tomography (BLT) attracts increasingly more attention in the area of optical molecular imaging. In this paper, we analyze the properties of the solutions to the regularized and discretized multispectral BLT problems. First, we show the solution existence, uniqueness, and its continuous dependence on the data. Then, we introduce stable numerical schemes and derive e...

Subpixel detection and classification are important in identification and quantification of multicomponent mixtures in remotely sensed data, such as multispectral/hyperspectral images. A recently proposed orthogonal subspace projection (OSP) has shown some success in Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) and Hyperspectral Digital Imagery Collection Experiment (HYDICE) data. Ho...

This paper proposes Transform Domain Fusion Rule (TDFR) via high pass modulation using Local Magnitude Ratio (LMR) in Fast Discrete Contour let Transform (FDCT) domain. Contour let transform method uses low resolution multispectral image and Cartosat-1 Panchromatic (PAN) of spatial resolution 2.5m is used as high resolution panchromatic image. This both images are up sampled in order to resize ...

Lithologic mapping in the hostile and inaccessible mountainous region like the Himalaya and Tibet has frequently been a great challenge for geologists. The remote sensing techniques should be a potential player in lithologic mapping and structural analysis in these mountainous regions. With the successful development of minrealogic indices, e.g., Quartz Index (QI), Carbonate Index (CI), Mafic I...

Multispectral palmprint is considered as an effective biometric modality to accurately recognize a subject with high confidence. This paper presents a novel multispectral palmprint recognition system consisting of three functional blocks namely: (1) novel technique to extract Region of Interest (ROI) from the hand images acquired using a contact less sensor (2) novel image fusion scheme based o...

Application of rapid and time-efficient health diagnostic and identification technology in the seed industry chain could accelerate required analysis, characteristic description and also ultimately availability of new desired varieties. The aim of the study was to evaluate the potential of multispectral imaging and single kernel near-infrared spectroscopy (SKNIR) for determination of seed healt...

Instrumental limitations such as bulkiness and high cost prevent the fluorescence technique from becoming ubiquitous for point-of-care deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) detection and other in-field molecular diagnostics applications. The complimentary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology, as benefited from process scaling, provides several advanced capabilities such as high integration density...

This paper address the detection of dust storms based on a probabilistic analysis of multispectral images. We develop a feature set based on the analysis of spectral bands reported in the literature. These studies have focused on the visual identification of the image channels that reflect the presence of dust storms through correlation with meteorological reports. Using this feature set we dev...

A new super resolution Bayesian method for pansharpening multispectral images which incorporates sensor characteristics to model the observation process of both the panchromatic and the multispectral images is presented in this paper. The quality of the pansharpened images is assessed both qualitatively and quantitatively. Preliminary results are very promising: the method succeeded in preservi...

Hyperspectral images have the high spectral resolution rather than to multispectral images. By development of remote sensing technology, the new sensors with hyperspectral capabilities in RS science will be replaced to multispectral imaging. A big advantage of hyperspectral images comparison to that of multispectral images is a continuous spectrum for each image cell that can be derived from im...
