Assignee: MATRIXSPEC SOLUTIONS INC.
Field: Computer technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  A | IPC A  G

Claim 1:
2. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein:
the feature extractor is configured to:
combine a second selected subset of the set of spectral images into a second fused image, the second selected subset comprising a different subset than all of the received set of spectral images; and
process the second fused image to:
extract image features from the second fused image, the image features from the second fused image including image texture features that describe spatial and spectral information of the respective first or second fused image or a region of the respective first or second fused image, the image features including an image texture feature having information associated with a spatial distribution of tonal variations within the particular wavelength range;
combine at least two the extracted image features from the second fused image into a second feature vector; and

the classifier is configured to process the first and second feature vectors to classify the unhatched egg according to at least one characteristic, the image features from the first and second feature vectors being classified separately, wherein classification results of the separately classified image features are fused at a decision level by an aggregate classification decision.
