Work-flow chart. The chart shows the simplified workflow for 1. The acquisition of the images. 2. The pre-processing part, which includes gamma and gradient correction of the RGB channel to uniform the color across the image, data binning, Savitzky-Golay filter and creation of hypercube. 3. Labelling data to create spectral library and training and classification of algae using the 1D Convolutional Neural Network model (1D-CNN).
