Abstract
This study proposes a piecewise Wiener estimation method to reconstruct a spectral reflectance image from a three-band image by multipoint spectral information collected simultaneously with image acquisition. A three-band image is divided into several blocks and the spectral estimation is carried out using the Wiener estimation matrix assigned to each block. Each Wiener estimation matrix is constructed on the basis of spectral measurement data. The experimental results show that the proposed method reduces the average estimation error monotonically as the number of spectral measurements increases. In addition, the computational time of the piecewise Wiener estimation costs only severalfold of the computational time of the conventional single-matrix method.
