A Coarse‐To‐Fine Approach to Detect Shadows in the Chang’E−4 VNIS Hyperspectral Images
Earth and Space Science, 2022 The low value of shadow pixels in the images sensed by the Visible and Near‐infrared Imaging Spectrometers (VNIS) aboard Chang’E−4 Yutu‐2 rover leads to an unrealistic representation of lunar surface reflectance.
