| Abstract: | The authors present a statistical approach for multi-band image processing based on “synthesizing” processing methods, i.e., methods which transform N original band-specific images into a smaller number of (synthetic) image products. Such techniques are increasingly replacing “one-dimensional” methods (one-to-one correspondence between number of original and processed images) because of the normally greater informational content and enhanced feature discrimination capability afforded by composite image products. The ultimate objective is development of a complex of image processing strategies balancing user demands for information quantity, image diversity, and efficient use of computer time.
