Paul Scheunders

Prof. Dr. Paul Scheunders is a Professor at the Vision Lab, University of Antwerp, specializing in image processing and machine learning with applications in remote sensing. He co-founded the Vision Lab in 1992 and has led research in hyperspectral imaging, focusing on spectral unmixing and material characterization.

• Research Interests: Model-based and statistical techniques for hyperspectral image analysis, moisture content estimation in soils and materials, corrosion monitoring, and spectral unmixing algorithms.
• Teaching: Courses in mathematical methods for physics, classical field theory, and artificial neural networks.
• Equipment: Utilizes VNIR/SWIR hyperspectral cameras and spectrometers for close-range applications.
• Recent Article Trends: 2024-2025 publications emphasize advanced unmixing methods (e.g., Bézier surfaces, dual-feature networks), moisture/water content estimation, and drone-based corrosion detection using hyperspectral data.
