• Abstract: Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy is a preferred technique for fast and direct multi-elemental mapping of samples under ambient pressure, without any limitation on the targeted element. However, LIBS mapping data have two peculiarities: an intrinsically low signal-to-noise ratio due to single-shot measurements, and a high dimensionality due to the high number of spectra acquired for imaging. This is all the truer as lateral resolution gets higher: in this case, the ablation spot diameter is reduced, as well as the ablated mass and the emission signal, while the number of spectra for a given surface increases. Therefore, efficient extraction of physico-chemical information from a noisy and large dataset is a major issue. Multivariate approaches were introduced by several authors as a means to cope with such data, particularly Principal Component Analysis. Yet, PCA is known to present theoretical constraints for the consistent reconstruction of the dataset, and has therefore limitations to efficient interpretation of LIBS mapping data. In this paper, we introduce HyperPCA, a new analysis tool for hyperspectral images based on a sparse representation of the data using Discrete Wavelet Transform and kernel-based sparse PCA to reduce the impact of noise on the data and to consistently reconstruct the spectroscopic signal, with a particular emphasis on LIBS data. The method is first illustrated using simulated LIBS mapping datasets to emphasize its performances with highly noisy and/or highly interfered spectra. Comparisons to standard PCA and to traditional univariate data analyses are provided. Finally, it is used to process real data in two cases that clearly illustrate the potential of the proposed algorithm. We show that the method presents advantages both in quantity and quality of the information recovered, thus improving the physico-chemical characterisation of analysed surfaces.

  Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) combines microscopy and spectroscopy to assess the spatial distribution of spectroscopically active compounds in objects. It has diverse applications in food quality control, pharmaceutical processes, and waste sorting. Due to the large size of HSI datasets, it can be challenging to analyze and store them within a reasonable digital infrastructure. Recent high-tech developments in chemometrics enable automated and evidence-based data reduction.
