Data's spatial dimensionality-based launchers

Here you can find launchers for the EIA toolbox which treat data in base to their spatial dimensionality. This launchers are divided into 1D, 2D and 3D.

• 1D Launcher: 1-spatial data is defined as a matrix where first dimension represents the spectral information and second dimension the spatial. Examples of 1-spatial data are contingency matrix where each sample (spatial dimensionality) is an N-dimensional feature vector (spectral dimensionality).
  • MATLAB: download (7.9 KB)
  • SCILAB: download (7.4 KB)

• 2D Launcher: 2-spatial data is defined as a cube where first dimension represents the spectral information and, second and third dimensions are the spatial ones. Examples of 2-spatial data are images where each pixel (spatial dimensionality) is an N-dimensional feature vector (spectral dimensionality). For binaries or grey-scale images N==1. For RGB images N==3. For hyperspectral images N is high.
  • MATLAB: download (8.1 KB)
  • SCILAB: download (7.7 KB)

• 3D Launcher: 3-spatial data is defined as an hypercube where first dimension represents the spectral information and, second, third and fourth dimensions are the spatial ones. Examples of 3-spatial data are hyperspectral MRI images where each voxel (spatial dimensionality) is an N-dimensional feature vector (spectral dimensionality).
