Fig. 7: Chemical resolution recovery by the RSPSSL scheme.

a Representative preprocessed Raman spectral image of the Hela cell line mapped with Raman shifts of the molecular fingerprint region. b Raman shift indication on the average spectra of the corresponding Raman spectral image. Each blue spectrum demonstrates the average of 10 000 spectra with top SNRspec of the raw data image. Each red spectrum shows the average of 10 000 RSBPCNN# preprocessed spectra with top SNRspec from the corresponding hyperspectral image. c Average 10 000 spectra with top SNRspec of each image preprocessed by different methods. d Merged images of the Raw data or RSBPCNN# preprocessed spectra with Raman shifts of 733 cm−1 (red, phosphatidylserine), 1200 cm−1 (blue, nucleic acids & phosphates/C-O/C-N), and 1224 cm−1 (green, amide III (β-sheet structure)).
