Analysis of dryness in cement-based mixture via spectral imaging and dimensionality reduction.

Dryness in cement-based mixture can be systematically analyzed using hyperspectral imaging and dimensionality reduction techniques. In this study, we captured the spectral images of cement-water mixture in the near-infrared range and obtained the spectrum as a function of time. The temporal evolution of the spectrum data was analyzed using dimensionality reduction techniques to determine the dryness of cement-water mixture.
