The mother of a premature infant in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU)  is encouraged by her baby’s nurse to bring expressed breast milk for enteral feedings. For which reason does the nurse encourage the mother to do this?

The only assumption difference between the QD and MF, is that in the MF we assume the target distribution is the same as the background distribution. 

The N-FINDR method for identifying endmembers will always find the same endmembers for a given hyperspectral image cube when used repeatedly or by different analysts. 

What is the Neyman-Pearson criterion, and why should we use or not use it in typical HSI target detection?

Say you are given a hyperspectral image collected by a satellite sensor in “digital counts” and the “reflectance spectrum” of a target.  Briefly list the steps you would follow to process data and find occurrences of the target in the image, ending with a description (i.e., how you would show results) of your final result, say, using a ROC curve. 

Using the spectral Angle Mapper algorithm, assign the reflectance vector ρ to the most appropriate class k as described by the class prototypes, Mk{“version”:”1.1″,”math”:”Mk”}.
