Hyperspectral remote sensing is a powerful tool in discriminating lithological units and in preparation of mineral maps. Hyperion is a space borne sensor of Hyperspectral imagery having 220 channels within the 400 nm to 2500 nm wavelength range. Although the technical specifications of the sensor are quite high, in the operational stage there exist many nuisances like atmosphere. The presence of atmosphere with aerosols and gases alters the reflected signal from the surface resulting in a decrease in the quality of the Hyperion image. In order to obtain accurate and reliable results, atmospheric correction must be carried out for Hyperion data. There are many atmospheric correction algorithms based on MODTRAN or LOWTRAN in literature and/or in commercial use. In this study, the Atmospheric CORrection Now (ACORN), the Fast Line-of-sight Atmospheric Analysis of Spectral Hypercubes (FLAASH), and ATmospheric CORrection (ATCOR 2-3) atmospheric correction algorithms were tested for atmospheric correction of Hyperion data. Test site is located on Central Anatolia having sparse vegetation cover. Both the obtained resultant images and the whole spectral signatures from the field samples were compared with cross correlations of whole spectra and specific wavelengths in spectral domain. Despite the compromises in different wavelength regions ACORN is found to be a slightly better corrector algorithm for natural earth materials through lithological and mineralogical mapping needs.

Evaluation of cross-track illumination in EO-1 Hyperion imagery for lithological mapping San, B. Taner; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi (Informa UK Limited, 2011-01-01) Hyperspectral remote sensing data is a powerful tool for discriminating lithological units and for the preparation of mineral maps for alteration studies. The spaceborne hyperspectral Hyperion sensor, despite its narrow swath width (similar to 7.5 km), possesses great potential with its 196 channels within the wavelength range 426.82-2395.50 nm. Although it has many advantages such as low cost and on-demand coverage, much uncertainty exists in the utility of its applications. For example, poor signal-to-noi...
Development of a supervised classification method to construct 2D mineral maps on backscattered electron images Camalan, Mahmut; Cavur, Mahmut (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2020-01-01) The Mineral Liberation Analyzer (MLA) can be used to obtain mineral maps from backscattered electron (BSE) images of particles. This paper proposes an alternative methodology that includes random forest classification, a prospective machine learning algorithm, to develop mineral maps from BSE images. The results show that the overall accuracy and kappa statistic of the proposed method are 97% and 0.94, respectively, proving that random forest classification is accurate. The accuracy indicators also suggest ...
Design of a high temperature erosion apparatus for testing of boiler tubes Ergün, Hüseyin; Öztürk, Tayfur; Doruk, Mustafa; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2010) In this thesis an apparatus is designed which enables the testing of thermal power plant boiler tubes against erosion. The apparatus makes use of a tube sample directly cut from the boiler tubes and simulates conditions similar to those prevailing in boilers in lignite fired power plants. The apparatus is composed of three components; a furnace for heating the sample, a loading system which allows application of tensile stresses while allowing the rotation of the sample, and a particle blower that delivers ...
Assessment of chromite liberation spectrum on microscopic images by means of a supervised image classification Camalan, Mahmut; Cavur, Mahmut; Hoşten, Çetin (Elsevier BV, 2017-12-01) Assessment of mineral liberation spectrum with all its aspects is essential for plant control and optimization. This paper aims to estimate 2D mineral map and its associated liberation spectrum of a particular chromite sample from optical micrographs by using Random Forest Classification, a powerful machine-learning algorithm implemented on a user-friendly and an open-source software. This supervised classification method can be used to accurately generate 2D mineral map of this chromite sample. The variati...
Fabrication of flexible, cost-effective, and scalable silver substrates for efficient surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy based trace detection Khan, Ghazanfar Ali; Demirtas, O. Ozge; Demir, Ahmet Kemal; Aytekin, Özlem; Bek, Alpan; Bhatti, Arshad Saleem; Ahmed, Waqqar (2021-06-01) The fabrication and optimization of cost-effective, eco-friendly, uniform and flexible SERS platforms by facile synthesis routes has recently attracted great attention for trace detection of various analytes. Herein, we report the fabrication of interconnected Ag nanostructures on the unmodified filter paper-based flexible substrates by a facile recipe, which involves evaporation of Ag precursor solution on the filter paper followed by its reduction with a strong reducing agent, NaBH4. The fabrication proce...
