Band Selection for Biomedical Hyperspectral Data Studies Using Genetic Algorithms

Hyperspectral imaging coupled with microscopy has been introduced for biomedicine science recently. As hyperspectral data cube include a great deal of single-band images, an adaptive genetic algorithm is presented to solve the best band combination problem for hyperspectral biomedical image studies in this paper. Simulation result demonstrates the effect of this algorithm to the hyperspectral image of leukemia blood cell.
