The spectral image processing system (SIPS) interactive visualization and analysis of imaging spectrometer data

TL;DR: The Center for the Study of Earth from Space (CSES) at the University of Colorado, Boulder, has developed a prototype interactive software system called the Spectral Image Processing System (SIPS) using IDL (the Interactive Data Language) on UNIX-based workstations to develop operational techniques for quantitative analysis of imaging spectrometer data.

A transformation for ordering multispectral data in terms of image quality with implications for noise removal

TL;DR: In this paper, a transformation known as the maximum noise fraction (MNF) transformation is presented, which always produces new components ordered by image quality, and it can be shown that this transformation is equivalent to principal components transformations when the noise variance is the same in all bands and that it reduces to a multiple linear regression when noise is in one band only.
