(12) First, refer to FIG. 1, which is a flowchart of a turn-based game according to an embodiment of this invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the steps of the method for detecting an object image with a hyperspectral image disclosed in this invention include: Step S05: Obtaining the hyperspectral image information according to the reference image; Step S10: The image capture unit captures the inputted image and send it to the host; Step S12: Converting the inputted image to obtain a hyperspectral image according to the hyperspectral image information; Step S14: Analyzing according to the hyperspectral image to obtain the first hyperspectral image vector and the first hyperspectral eigenvalue; Step S16: Performing a principal component analysis operation on the first hyperspectral image vector and the first hyperspectral eigenvalue to generate the second image vector and the corresponding second eigenvalue; Step S20: Performing convolution calculation on the second image vector and the second eigenvalue according to the convolution cores to obtain a convolution result; use the result and follow the convolution result and the testing object image to obtain the selected images; Step S30: The host generates a pre-set frame according to the edges of the selected images; and Step S40: The host captures the boundary frame of the inputted image, using it to compare the first center of the pre-set frame with the second center of the boundary frame and obtain the center offset of the pre-set frame and the boundary frame; Step S50: The host performs a regression calculation based on the center offset and obtains the regression result; Step S55: The host follows the regression result to align the testing object image; when the first center moves to the second center, the selected images move to the second center; Step S60: The host compares the testing object image with the sample image and generates a comparing result; and Step S70: The host categorizes the inputted image as a target object image or a non-target object image according to the comparing result.

(13) Please refer to FIG. 2A to 2H, which are the detection system 1 used in the method for detecting object images by hyperspectral image specified in this invention, which includes a host 10 and an image capture unit 20. In this embodiment, as an example, a host 10 is equipped with a processing unit 12, a memory 14, and a storage unit 16. Yet, it isn't limited to this only; the host can be a server, a laptop, a tablet, or computing power-based electronic devices. Database 30 is built in a storage unit 16. Yet, it isn't limited to this only; it can also be an external storage unit of host 10. The host 10 uses the processing unit 12 to run a convolution program P and creates a convolutional neural network CNN. Moreover, the image capture unit 20 is an endoscope in this embodiment; which is used to inspect internal organs and tissues, such as the cystoscope, gastroscope, colonoscope, bronchoscope, and laparoscope.

(14) In step S05, as shown in FIG. 2A, the host 10 reads a reference image REF corresponding to the image capture unit 20; the inputted image REF includes at least a testing object image O1 and a background image BG, where the inputted image REF can be a white light image and a narrowband image stored in the database 30, or a reference color block captured in the 24 color checkers by the image capture unit 20. The image capture unit 20 specified in this embodiment uses the white light endoscope OLYMPUS EVIS LUCERA CV-260 SL to obtain the corresponding white light reference image, and uses the narrowband endoscope OLYMPUS EVIS LUCERA CLV-260 to obtain the corresponding narrowband reference image; which is, at least an object reference image O1R and a background reference image BGR exist in the white light reference image and the narrowband reference image of the reference image REF respectively.

(15) Refer to FIG. 2A, the host 10 obtains a hyperspectral image information HSA according to the reference image REF, that is, using the Visible Hyperspectral Algorithm (VIS-HSA) to run the inputted image captured by the image capture unit 20 and obtain the converting equation that converts the ordinary image color space (that is, the color space of the captured image) to the XYZ color space (1931XYZ Color space) (for example, the conversion from sRGB color space to XYZ color space). The hyperspectral image information of this invention corresponds to the hyperspectral image of the visible light waveband in the visible light hyperspectral image technology; and it corresponds to the 24 color checkers (X-Rite Classic, 24 Color Checkers); the 24 color checkers contain the main colors commonly found in nature (red, green, blue and gray). The hyperspectral image information HSA corresponds to the plurality of white light images and narrowband images and includes a plurality of color matching functions (CMF), a correction matrix C, and a conversion matrix M.

(16) Continuing the above, the first step of conversion should convert the reference image REF and the spectrometer to the same XYZ color space; the conversion equation of the reference image REF is as follows:

(17) $\begin{array}{cc}\left[\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{c}X\\ Y\end{array}\\ Z\end{array}\right]=\left[M_A\right]\left[T\right]\left[\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{c}f\left(R_{\mathrm{SRGB}}\right)\\ f\left(G_{\mathrm{SRGB}}\right)\end{array}\\ f\left(B_{\mathrm{SRGB}}\right)\end{array}\right]\times 100,0\le \begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{c}{R}_{\mathrm{SRGB}}\\ G_{\mathrm{SRGB}}\end{array}\\ B_{\mathrm{SRGB}}\end{array}\le 1& \mathrm{Equation}\left(1\right)\end{array}$

(18) Where

(19) $\begin{array}{cc}\left[T\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.4104& 0.3576& 0.1805\\ 0.2126& 0.7152& 0.0722\\ 0.0193& 0.1192& 0.9505\end{array}\right]& \mathrm{Equation}\left(2\right)\end{array}$$\begin{array}{cc}f\left(n\right)=\{\begin{array}{c}\left(\frac{n+0.055}{1.055}\right),n>0.04045\\ \left(\frac{n}{12.92}\right),\mathrm{otherwise}\end{array}& \mathrm{Equation}\left(3\right)\end{array}$$\begin{array}{cc}\left[M_A\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}{X}_{\mathrm{SW}}/X_{\mathrm{CW}}& 0& 0\\ 0& Y_{\mathrm{SW}}/X_{\mathrm{CW}}& 0\\ 0& 0& Z_{\mathrm{SW}}/Z_{\mathrm{CW}}\end{array}\right]& \mathrm{Equation}\left(4\right)\end{array}$

(20) ƒ(n) is a gamma function, T is the conversion matrix, and [M.sub.A] is the color adaptation matrix.

(21) The equation for converting the reflection spectrum data captured by the spectrometer to the XYZ color gamut space is as follows:
X=k∫.sub.380nm.sup.780nmS(λ)R(λ){tilde over (x)}(λ)dλ  Equation (5)
Y=k∫.sub.380nm.sup.780nmS(λ)R(λ){tilde over (y)}(λ)dλ  Equation (6)
Z=k∫.sub.380nm.sup.780nmS(λ)R(λ){tilde over (z)}(λ)dλ  Equation (7)
Where k is shown in below  Equation (8):
k=100.sub.380nm.sup.780nmS(λ){tilde over (y)}(λ)dλ  Equation (9)

(22) {tilde over (x)}(λ), {tilde over (y)}(λ), {tilde over (z)}(λ) are the color matching functions, S(λ) is the spectrum of light source taken by the endoscope. Since the Y value of the XYZ color space is proportional to the brightness, use Equation (9) to obtain the maximum brightness Y of the light source spectrum; then, specify the upper limit of Y to be 100 and obtain the normative ratio k of brightness. Therefore, use equations (5) to (7) to obtain the XYZ value [XYZ.sub.Spectrum].

(23) In addition, the endoscope image can be further corrected through the correction matrix C of Equation (10):
[C]=[XYZ.sub.Spectrum]×nv([V])  Equation (10)

(24) The variable matrix [V] is obtained by analyzing the factors that may cause errors in the endoscope. The factors that cause the errors are the nonlinear response of the endoscope, the dark current of the endoscope, the inaccurate color separation of the color filter, and the color shift (for example, white balance), used to correct the XYZ value [XYZ.sub.Spectrum].

(25) Since the calculation results of the narrowband image and the white light image in the third-order operation are similar, the nonlinear response correction is performed by the third-order equation, and the nonlinear response of the endoscope is corrected by Equation (11):
V.sub.Non-linear=[X.sup.3 Y.sup.3 Z.sup.3 X.sup.2 Y.sup.2 Z.sup.2 X Y Z 1].sup.T  Equation (11)

(26) Generally speaking, the dark current in the endoscope is a fixed value and won't change significantly with the change of light-in amount; the effect of dark current is regarded as a constant, and the correction variable of dark current is defined as VDark; use Equation (12) to correct the influence of dark current:
V.sub.Dark=[α]  Equation (12)

(27) The correction variable for the inaccuracy of color separation and color shift of the filter is defined as V.sub.Color, {tilde over (x)}(λ), {tilde over (y)}(λ), {tilde over (z)}(λ) are the color matching functions from RGB color space to XYZ color space, Therefore, according to the correlation between {tilde over (x)}(λ), {tilde over (y)}(λ), {tilde over (z)}(λ), the possible permutations between X, Y, and Z are listed in the following Equation (13), used to correct the inaccurate color separation and color shift of the endoscopic image in the color filter:
V.sub.Color=[XYZ XY YZ XZ X Y Z].sup.T  Equation (13)

(28) From the above Equation (11) to Equation (13), the correction variable matrix V shown in Equation (14) is derived:
V=[X.sup.3Y.sup.3Z.sup.3 X.sup.2Y X.sup.2Z Y.sup.2Z XZ.sup.2 YZ.sup.2 XYZX.sup.2Y.sup.2 Z.sup.2 XY YZ XZ X Y Zα].sup.T  Equation (14)

(29) By combining the above variable matrix V with the correction matrix C, the values of corrected X, Y, and Z [XYZ.sub.Correct] are obtained, as shown in Equation (15) below:
[XYZ.sub.Correct]=[C]×[V]  Equation (15)

(30) The average error of the white light image between [XYZ.sub.Correct] and [XYZ.sub.Spectrum] is 1.40, and the average error of the narrow hand image between [XYZ.sub.Correct] and [XYZ.sub.Spectrum] is 2.39.

(31) Since the above calculation uses the visible light wavelength range of 380 nm to 780 nm, the correction result of endoscope must be expressed in color difference, where [XYZ.sub.Correct] and [XYZ.sub.Spectrum] are converted to Lab color space corresponding to CIE DE2000. The color space conversion equations are shown in Equation (16) to Equation (18):

(32) $\begin{array}{cc}{L}^{\star }=116f\left(\frac{Y}{Y_n}\right)-16& \mathrm{Equation}\left(16\right)\end{array}$$\begin{array}{cc}{a}^{*}=500\left[f\left(\frac{X}{X_n}\right)-f\left(\frac{Y}{Y_n}\right)\right]& \mathrm{Equation}\left(17\right)\end{array}$$\begin{array}{cc}{b}^{\star }=200\left[f\left(\frac{Y}{Y_n}\right)-f\left(\frac{Z}{Z_n}\right)\right]& \mathrm{Equation}\left(18\right)\end{array}$

(33) Where ƒ(n) is shown in Equation (19) below:

(34) $\begin{array}{cc}f\left(n\right)=\{\begin{array}{c}{n}^{\frac{1}{3}},n>0.008856\\ 7.787n+0.137931,\mathrm{otherwise}\end{array}& \mathrm{Equation}\left(19\right)\end{array}$

(35) The average chromatic aberration of the white light image before correction is 11.4, the average chromatic aberration after correction is 2.84, and the average chromatic aberration of the narrowband image before correction is 29.14, the average chromatic aberration after correction is 2.58.

(36) In step S10, as shown in FIG. 2B, the host 10 obtains an inputted image IMG from the image capture unit 20, where the inputted image IMG can have a white light image and a narrowband image like the reference image REF. The image capture unit 20 in this embodiment is a white light endoscope OLYMPUS EVIS LUCERA CV-260 SL corresponding to the white light image, and a narrowband endoscope OLYMPUS EVIS LUCERA CLV-260 corresponds to the narrowband image. In step S12, the host 10 follows the resolution of the inputted image IMG meeting a resolution threshold, for example, 10 nanometers. It is judged that the inputted image IMG meets the resolution threshold of the hyperspectral image, therefore, according to the hyperspectral image information HSA obtained in step S05, the inputted image IMG is converted to the hyperspectral image HYI, and continue to run step S14.

(37) Following the above, in step S14, the host takes out a plurality of corresponding first hyperspectral eigenvalues F1 according to the hyperspectral image HYI. In step S16, the first hyperspectral eigenvalue F1 obtained by the host 10 in step S14 is used to perform principal component analysis (PCA) calculations. To simplify the calculation result and filter out lower changes, the hyperspectral image HYI is simplified and a plurality of second eigenvalues F2 are generated. The calculation equation of PCA is shown in Equation (20) below:
y.sub.i=a.sub.j1(x.sub.1i−x.sub.1)+a.sub.j2(x.sub.2i−x.sub.2)+ . . . +a.sub.jn  Equation (20)

(38) x.sub.1i to x.sub.ni represent the spectral intensities of the first to the n.sup.th wavelengths; x.sub.1 to x.sub.n represent the expected spectrums (average spectrum intensities) of the first to the n.sup.th wavelengths; a.sub.j1 to a.sub.jn to represent the spectrum eigenvector coefficient of the covariance matrix for covariance calculation. In the perspective of reducing the computational complexity, after the principal component analysis has reduced the dimensionality of the 401-dimensional spectrum information only the first three dimensions are required.

(39) Furthermore, by using the correction value [XYZ.sub.Correct] obtained above with the reflection spectrum data corresponding to the above 24 color checker [R.sub.Spectrum], the corresponding conversion matrix M is obtained from Equation (21) below:
[M]=[Score]×pinv([V.sub.Color])  Equation (21)
[S.sub.Spectr].sub.380-780=[EV][M][V.sub.Color]  Equation (22)

(40) Where [Score] is a plurality of principal components (EV) obtained from the reflectance spectrum data [R.sub.Spectrum] through the principal component analysis. In this embodiment, we use 12 sets of principal components with a better explanatory ability (the weight percentages are 88.0417%, 8.2212%, 2.6422% 0.609%, 0.22382%, 0.10432%, 0.054658%, 0.0472%, 0.02638%, 0.012184%, 0.010952%, acid 0.0028714%) to make dimensionality reducing operation and thus obtains the simulated spectrum [S.sub.Spectrum].sub.380-780, the error between the [S.sub.Spectrum].sub.380-780 and the inputted image IMG [XYZ.sub.Spectrum] is corrected from 11.6 to 2.85 in a white light image, and from 29.14 to 2.60 in the narrowband image. Thus, the color error that cannot be easily recognized by the naked eye is achieved, and it is convenient for the user to obtain a better color reproduction performance when the user has a color reproduction requirement. Therefore, it has simulated a better hyperspectral image in the visible light band.

(41) In step S20, as shown in FIG. 2C and FIG. 3, the host 10 applies the second eigenvalue F2 obtained from the inputted image IMG through steps S14 to S16, in particular the value between 0 and 1, using a plurality of the convolution cores C to detect a plurality of second eigenvalues F2 corresponding to the inputted image “IMG;” the convolution cores C include the selected eigenvalues F22 corresponding to a plurality of selected images O2 of the at least a testing object image O2 and the peripheral eigenvalues F24 corresponding to the peripheral images BGI adjacent to the at least a testing object image O1 used to filter out the background image BG that does not contain the testing object image O1. The host follows a single shot multi-frame target detector model to perform convolution on each pixel unit of the inputted image, detecting the eigenvalues; and the convolution cores C correspond to the selected eigenvalues F22 corresponding to the plural selected images O2 of at least a testing object image O1, and the peripheral eigenvalues F24 corresponds to the peripheral images BGI in the adjacent edge.

(42) Refer to FIG. 2C and FIG. 3, the inputted image IMG is in m×n pixel unit, characteristically taken through P channels; therefore, the convolution cores C are m×m×p units, m=n. For example, the 1×1×p, 3×3×p, 5×5×p, 10×10×p, 19×19×p or 38×38×p units. The convolution cores C detect the testing object image O1 on the inputted image IMG and the background image BG to filter out the background image BG, reducing the subsequent processing on the background image BG. The second eigenvalue F2 corresponding to the inputted image IMG is the corresponded selected eigenvalue F22 and the peripheral eigenvalues F24 converted from the processing unit 12. The processing unit 12 multiplies the convolution cores C and the second eigenvalue F2 corresponding to the inputted image IMG and obtains different convolution result R, getting 1 for the identical case and −1 for the different case, and thus filters out the irrelevant background image BG; as shown in FIG. 4, it obtains the entire or partial of the at least a testing object image O1 from the second eigenvalue F2 corresponding to the inputted image IMG, and thus obtaining the entire or partial of the area A where the at least a testing object image O1 is located.

(43) In step S30, as shown in FIG. 2D and FIG. 5, the host 10 obtains at least a selected image O2 according to the area A where the at least a testing object image O1 is located; that is, the selected eigenvalue F22 and the peripheral eigenvalues F24 obtained by the convolution program P; and the peripheral eigenvalues F24 respectively builds at least a pre-set frame D, as shown in FIG. 6. The edge relative to the inputted image IMG is the initial boundary frame B, where the side length of the pre-set frame D is min_size=s.sub.k, the maximum side length is √{square root over (min_size×maxsize)}, max_size=s.sub.k+1 the side size s.sub.k is obtained following Equation (1) below:

(44) $\begin{array}{cc}{s}_k=s_{\min }+\frac{s_{\max }-s_{\min }}{m-1}\left(k-1\right),k\in \left[1,m\right]& \mathrm{Equation}\left(1\right)\end{array}$

(45) From Equation (2) and Equation (3), the height and width are calculated according to the side length s.sub.k:
h.sub.k=s.sub.k√{square root over (a.sub.r)}  Equation (2)
w.sub.k=s.sub.k√{square root over (a.sub.r)}  Equation (3)

(46) The h.sub.k represents the frame height of the rectangle in the k.sup.th characteristic map under prior inspection, w.sub.k represents the frame width of the rectangle in the k.sup.th characteristic map under prior inspection, and a.sub.r represents the aspect ratio of the pre-set frame D, a.sub.r>0.

(47) In step S40, as shown in FIG. 2F and FIG. 6, the host 10 uses the processing unit 12 to captures the boundary frame B corresponding to the inputted image IMG and runs the convolution program P, capturing a first center Dc in the pre-set frame D and a second center Bc in a boundary frame B of the inputted image IMG, and obtaining the center offset distance DIS between the first center Dc and the second center Bc. Continue to step S50, as shown in FIG. 2E and FIG. 7, the host 10 further performs regression operation LOOP by the processing unit 12 according to the center offset distance DIS between the pre-set frame D and the boundary frame B; the LOOP operation is as follows:
Pre-set frame D location,d=(d.sup.cx,d.sup.cy,d.sup.w,d.sup.h)  Equation(4)
Boundary frame B location,b=(b.sup.cx,b.sup.cy,b.sup.w,b.sup.h)  Equation (5)
Zooming factor,l=(l.sup.cx,l.sup.cy,l.sup.w,i.sup.h)  Equation(6)
b.sup.cx=d.sup.wl.sup.cx+d.sup.cx  Equation(7)
b.sup.cy=d.sup.hl.sup.cy+d.sup.cy  Equation (8)
b.sup.w=d.sup.w exp(l.sup.w)  Equation (9)
b.sup.h=d.sup.h exp(l.sup.h)  Equation (10)

(48) First, align the center coordinates of the boundary frame B with the center coordinates of the prediction detection frame D, which means “translating” the center point of the boundary frame B to the center point of the predictive detection frame D; that is, the first center De and the second center Bc in FIG. 6 overlap, as shown in Equation (7) and Equation (8); next, “post-scale” the size of the boundary frame to be close to the pre-set frame D, as in Equation (9) and Equation (10), Through the above translation transformation and size scaling, it can make the boundary frame B infinitely close to the position of the prediction detection frame D. Therefore, in step S55, the convolutional neural network CNN of the convolution program P run by the processing unit 12 of the host 10 continuously regresses until the size of boundary frame B is infinitely close to the position of prediction detection frame D, and thereby superimposing the testing object image O1 concerning the pre-set frame D and boundary frame B, and thus accurately defining the position of the testing object image O1; that is, when the first center Dc is moved to the second center Bc, the selected images (that is, the images in the pre-set frame D) are moved to the second center Bc.

(49) To accurately define the position of the testing object image O1, it further works with the loss equation, as showing in Equation (8) below:
L.sub.loc(x,l,g)=Σ.sub.i∈Pos.sup.NΣ.sub.m∈{cx,cy,w,h}x.sub.ij.sup.ksmooth.sub.L1(l.sub.i.sup.m−ĝ.sub.j.sup.m)  Equation (8)

(50) It thus has verified the error between the locations of the pre-set predictive detection frame D and the testing object image O1.

(51) In step S60, as shown in FIG. 2G, after the processing unit 12 has positioned the location of the testing object image O1, the host 10 makes the first comparison of the testing object image O1 and the sample image SA in the database 30 and obtains a comparing result R. In the subsequent step S70, as shown in FIG. 2H, through the running of the convolution program P processed by the processing unit 12, the host 10 compares the result R and categorizes the inputted image IMG into a target object image TA or a non-target object image NTA; for example, the malignant tumor. When the convolution program P run by the processing unit 12 of the host 10 cannot recognize the testing object image O1 in the pre-set frame D matching at least a sample image SA, the host 10 categorizes the inputted image BIG into the non-target object image NTA; on the contrary, the convolution program P run by the processing unit 12 of the host 10 categorizes the inputted image IMG into the target object image TA. Furthermore, when the convolution program P run by the processing unit 12 of the host 10 categorizes the inputted image IMG into a non-target object image NTA, the convolution program P will go on running the second comparison on at least a sample image SA and the testing object image O1; if the convolution program P judges that the comparing result R of the testing object image O1 shows that the similarity of the target object image TA is greater than a similarity threshold (for example, the similarity is within 0 and 1 while taking the similarity threshold as 0.5), the convolution program P categorizes the inputted image to the target object image TA, otherwise, the convolution program P categorizes the inputted image IMG into the non-target object image NTA.

(52) FIG. 8 is a schematic diagram of this invention in actual operation. The inputted image IMG is an esophageal endoscopic image, for the inputted image IMG that has gone through the method of detecting an object image with a hyperspectral image disclosed in this invention, the pre-set frame D and the boundary frame B are superimposed, and has been compared with the sample image with the comparison result R being obtained. The sample image is an endoscopic image of the esophagus in the dysplasia area and the accuracy rate can reach 93.0%; in addition, the image loss has dropped to 6.20. It still needs the doctor to perform other medical diagnosis methods to confirm the diagnosis. Therefore, this invention can provide the doctor with auxiliary evidence for symptom judgment.

(53) In summary, the method for detecting object images using hyperspectral imagings disclosed in this invention provides a host to obtain hyperspectral image information, and then it converts the inputted image into a hyperspectral image according to the hyperspectral image information to continue to run the convolution program, letting the host construct a convolutional neural network to convolve the inputted image of the image capture unit, and filtering out the area to be detected. Therefore, it can set up a predictive detection frame on the inputted image, and using the regression calculation to determine the location of the testing object image using the boundary frame and compares the testing object image with the sample images, using the comparison result to categorize the target object image and the non-target object image.
