A system for typing biological cells includes a tunable Fabry-Perot etalon, and imaging sensor, and a processor. The imaging sensor acquires one or more images of one or more biological cells from light transmitted through the tunable Fabry-Perot etalon. Each image represents signal associated with one or more wavelengths transmitted through the tunable Fabry-Perot etalon. The processor is configured to determine a type of each of the one or more biological cells. Determining the type uses a machine learning algorithm and is based at least in part on one or more of an image segmentation, a patch extraction, a feature extraction, a feature compression, a deep feature extraction, a feature fusion, a feature classification, and a prediction map reconstruction.
