Hyperspectral natural image dataset
This post provides the hyperspectral natural image dataset collected by Daniel Ruderman, Thomas Cronin, and Chuan-Chin Chiao.
Here is a link to download the images. Details on the data can be found in:
Ruderman, D. L., Cronin, T. W., & Chiao, C. C. (1998). Statistics of cone responses to natural images: implications for visual coding. Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 15(8), 2036-2045.
An RGB rendering of the images can be seen below.
I’ve also included a short script on how to read the data in python. Feel free to reach out if you run into any issues downloading or loading the data.
