Abstract
Xiong'an New Area is defined as the future city of China, and the regulation of water resources is an important part of the scientific development of the city. Baiyang Lake, the main supplying water for the city, is selected as the study area, and the water quality extraction of four typical river sections is taken as the research objective. The GaiaSky-mini2-VN hyperspectral imaging system was executed on the UAV to obtain the river hyperspectral data for four winter periods. Synchronously, water samples of COD, PI, AN, TP, and TN were collected on the ground, and the in situ data under the same coordinate were obtained. A total of 2 algorithms of band difference and band ratio are established, and the relatively optimal model is obtained based on 18 spectral transformations. The conclusion of the strength of water quality parameters' content along the four regions is obtained. This study revealed four types of river self-purification, namely, uniform type, enhanced type, jitter type, and weakened type, which provided the scientific basis for water source traceability evaluation, water pollution source area analysis, and water environment comprehensive treatment.

Abstract
Thermal infrared hyperspectral imager is one of the frontier payloads in current hyperspectral remote sensing research. It has broad application prospects in land and ocean temperature inversion, environmental monitoring, and other fields. However, due to the influence of the production process of the infrared focal plane array and the characteristics of the material itself, the infrared focal plane array inevitably has blind pixels, resulting in spectral distortion of the data or even invalid data, which limits the application of thermal infrared hyperspectral data. Most of the current blind pixels detection methods are based on the spatial dimension of the image, that is, processing single-band area images. The push-broom thermal infrared hyperspectral imager works completely different from the conventional area array thermal imager, and only one row of data is obtained per scan. Therefore, the current method cannot be directly applied to blind pixels detection of push-broom thermal infrared hyperspectral imagers. Based on the imaging principle of push-broom thermal infrared hyperspectral imager, we propose a practical blind pixels detection method. The method consists of two stages to detect and repair four common types of blind pixels: dead pixel, dark current pixel, blinking pixel, and noise pixel. In the first stage, dead pixels and dark current pixels with a low spectral response rate are detected by spectral filter detection; noise pixels are detected by spatial noise detection; and dark current pixels with a negative response slope are detected by response slope detection. In the second stage, according to the random appearance of blinking pixels, spectral filter detection is used to detect and repair spectral anomalies caused by blinking pixels line by line. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, a flight test was carried out, using the Airborne Thermal-infrared Hyperspectral Imaging System (ATHIS), the latest thermal infrared imager in China, for data acquisition. The results show that the method proposed in this paper can accurately detect and repair blind pixel, thus effectively eliminating spectral anomalies and significantly improving image quality.

Abstract
Commercial hyperspectral imagers (HSIs) are expensive and thus unobtainable for large audiences or research groups with low funding. In this study, we used an existing do-it-yourself push-broom HSI design for which we provide software to correct for spectral smile aberration without using an optical laboratory. The software also corrects an aberration which we call tilt. The tilt is specific for the particular imager design used, but correcting it may be beneficial for other similar devices. The tilt and spectral smile were reduced to zero in terms of used metrics. The software artifact is available as an open-source Github repository. We also present improved casing for the imager design, and, for those readers interested in building their own HSI, we provide print-ready and modifiable versions of the 3D-models required in manufacturing the imager. To our best knowledge, solving the spectral smile correction problem without an optical laboratory has not been previously reported. This study re-solved the problem with simpler and cheaper tools than those commonly utilized. We hope that this study will promote easier access to hyperspectral imaging for all audiences regardless of their financial status and availability of an optical laboratory.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Melanoma is a type of superficial tumor. As advanced melanoma has a poor prognosis, early detection and therapy are essential to reduce melanoma-related deaths. To that end, there is a need to develop a quantitative method for diagnosing melanoma. This paper reports the development of such a diagnostic system using hyperspectral data (HSD) and a convolutional neural network, which is a type of machine learning. MATERIALS AND METHODS HSD were acquired using a hyperspectral imager, which is a type of spectrometer that can simultaneously capture information about wavelength and position. GoogLeNet pre-trained with Imagenet was used to model the convolutional neural network. As many CNNs (including GoogLeNet) have three input channels, the HSD (involving 84 channels) could not be input directly. For that reason, a "Mini Network" layer was added to reduce the number of channels from 84 to 3 just before the GoogLeNet input layer. In total, 619 lesions (including 278 melanoma lesions and 341 non-melanoma lesions) were used for training and evaluation of the network. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION The system was evaluated by 5-fold cross-validation, and the results indicate sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 69.1%, 75.7%, and 72.7% without data augmentation, 72.3%, 81.2%, and 77.2% with data augmentation, respectively. In future work, it is intended to improve the Mini Network and to increase the number of lesions.

Abstract
Due to the strong absorption of water vapor at wavelengths of 1350–1420 nm and 1820–1940 nm, under normal atmospheric conditions, the actual digital number (DN) response curve of a hyperspectral imager deviates from the Gaussian shape, which leads to a decrease in the calibration accuracy of an instrument’s spectral response functions (SRF). The higher the calibration uncertainty of SRF, the worse the retrieval accuracy of the spectral characteristics of the targets. In this paper, an improved spectral calibration method based on a monochromator and the spectral absorptive characteristics of water vapor in the laboratory is presented. The water vapor spectral calibration method (WVSCM) uses the difference function to calculate the intrinsic DN response functions of the spectral channels located in the absorptive wavelength range of water vapor and corrects the wavelength offset of the monochromator via the least-square procedure to achieve spectral calibration throughout the full spectral responsive range of the hyper-spectrometer. The absolute spectral calibration uncertainty is ±0.125 nm. We validated the effectiveness of the WVSCM with two tunable semiconductor lasers, and the spectral wavelength positions calibrated by lasers and the WVSCM showed a good degree of consistency.
