Patent ID: 11869176
Assignee: UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
Field: Medical technology (Instruments)
Classification: CPC G  A | IPC A  G

Claim 5:
6. The hyperspectral imaging system of claim 1, wherein:
the reference color map has a circular shape, which forms a circular reference color map;
the circular reference color map has an origin; and a radial direction and an angular direction with respect to the origin of the circular reference color map;
the image forming system has a configuration that:
determines a maximum value of a phasor histogram to form a maximum phasor value;
assigns a center to a circle that corresponds to coordinates of the maximum phasor value to form the circular reference color map's maximum center;
varies color in the radial direction and keeps color uniform in the angular direction, with respect to the circular reference color map's maximum center, to form a morph maximum value mode; and/or
varies color in the angular direction and keeps color uniform in the radial direction, with respect to the circular reference color map's maximum center, to form a morph center-of-mass value mode; and
forms the reference color map.
