Description

PoliBrush is a freely distributed, stand-alone software designed for teaching exploratory multivariate analysis in the frame of color RGB and spectral imaging. PoliBrush implements principal component analysis (PCA) as its core method. It features a single main window that provides users with essential tools for spectral image preprocessing and exploration. The software emphasizes an interactive brushing approach, enabling users to gain a comprehensive understanding of the relationships between PCA score space and image pixel space.

 

Example datasets can be downloaded from:
