HIDSAG: Hyperspectral Image Database for Supervised Analysis in Geometallurgy

Abstract

AbstractSupervised analysis using spectral data requires a well-informed characterisation of the response variables and abundant spectral data points. The presented hyperspectral dataset comes from five sets of geometallurgical samples, each characterised by different methods. To provide the spectral data, all mineral samples were scanned with SPECIM VNIR and SWIR hyperspectral cameras. For each subset the following data are provided 1) hyperspectral reflectance images in the VNIR spectral range (400–1000 nm wavelength); 2) hyperspectral reflectance images in the SWIR spectral range (900–2500 nm wavelength); 3) hyperspectral reflectance images in the VNIR-SWIR range (merged to SWIR spatial resolution); 4) RGB images constructed from hyperspectral data using a Bilateral Filter based sensor fusion method; 5) response variables representing mineral sample characterisation results, provided as training and validation data. This dataset is intended for use in general regression and classification research and experiments. All subsets were validated using machine learning models with satisfactory results.
