Development of Fruit-Specific Spectral Indices and Endmember-Based Analysis for Apple Cultivar Classification Using Hyperspectral Imaging

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has emerged as a powerful tool for non-destructive phenotyping, yet fruit crop applications remain underexplored. We propose a methodological framework to enhance the spectral characterization of apple fruits by identifying robust vegetation indices (VIs) and interpretabl...
