A Comprehensive Review of Deep Learning Methods for Hyperspectral Image Compression

Rapid advancement in the development of hyperspectral image (HSI) sensors has significantly enhanced the capabilities of capturing detailed spectral information across a wide range of wavelengths, enabling more precise analysis and interpretation of the observed scenes. Managing the storage of these extensive images poses a crucial challenge, requiring the application of compression techniques. Deep Learning (DL) algorithms have seen a massive rise in popularity over the past few years for HSI compression as well as HSI analysis. This review paper provides a comprehensive summary of the current literature on deep learning methods for HSI compression. Additionally, it explores the challenges, opportunities, and potential directions for future research in HSI compression.
