Spectral Classification Techniques for Remote-Sensing Alarms

Abstract

To limit the responses of constraint spectra to the noise level of the instrument and maximize the response of a target spectrum, computer optimization programs are usually used. Computer capacity however limits the number of constraints that can be considered at one time. A need exists to select a representative set of independent constraint spectra which will be adequate for all situations. Through the use of factor analysis such a representative set was chosen. It is believed to come close to meeting the necessary requirements.
