We present a fast reconstruction algorithm for hyperspectral images, utilizing a small amount of data without the need for any training. The method is implemented with a dual disperser hyperspectral imager and makes use of spatial-spectral correlations by a so-called separability assumption that assumes that the image is made of regions of homogenous spectra. The reconstruction algorithm is simple and ready-to-use and does not require any prior knowledge of the scene. A simple proof-of-principle experiment is performed, demonstrating that only a small number of acquisitions are required, and the resulting compressed data-cube is reconstructed near instantaneously.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
