Abstract: Embodiments can relate to a system for producing a digital image by automatically correcting for scattering and/or absorption effects in an original digital image. The system can include a processor. The system can include memory containing a computer program that when executed will cause the processor to receive radiance spectra of a digital image, and execute a Gaussian machine learning model. The system can generate a reflectance parameter by predicting a ground reflectance value based on a Gaussian probability distribution of radiance spectra. The system can solve for a conversion coefficient based on the reflectance parameter. The system can produce an altered digital image by at least one or more of removing, filtering, and/or altering data for at least one pixel of a digital image based on the conversion coefficient.
