Abstract
This disclosure relates to processing a spectral dataset, such as a hyperspectral image or a large collection of individual spectra taken with the same spectrometer, to increase the signal-to-noise ratio. The methods can also be used to process a stack of images that differ by acquisition time rather than wavelength. The methods remove most of the sensor background noise with minimal corruption of image texture, anomalous or rare spectra or waveforms, and spectral or time resolution.
