Abstract: The invention provides a method for identifying one or more materials in a scene by determining a set of spectral vectors, called endmembers, from a data set comprised of spectra from the image data, and matching the set of endmembers to predefined library materials. The image data of the scene is captured with a sensor, and comprises a plurality of spectra. The method applies an iterative mathematical criterion, termed residual minimization, to find the endmembers. The first endmember may be selected based on the largest mean square value or the largest mean magnitude value. Subsequent endmembers are determined by calculating weighting factors, such that the weighting factors are non-negative and the calculated vector differences, or residuals, generate the smallest error metric. The error metric is dependent upon the vector difference between two spectra in the image data set, and may be the mean squared vector difference between two spectra.

Abstract: A method of representing spectral data, such as hyperspectral imaging data (HSI) and multispectral imaging data (MSI), as a set of simplex models. The method finds end-images or end-spectra in the data (termed “endmembers”) as extreme points, and simultaneously determines the abundance of the endmembers.

Abstract: A system and method for remotely determining at least one of the temperature of, and the relative concentrations of species making up, a hot fluid, based on the spectral structure of radiation emitted from the fluid. Thermal radiation over a field of view including the hot fluid is collected. At least a portion of the emission spectrum from the collected radiation is resolved. The resolved emission spectrum is resolved into spectra that are characteristic of specific emitting species and emitter temperatures. The temperature of, and the relative concentrations of species making up, the hot fluid, are determined from the relative amounts of at least two resolved spectra.
