Pan-sharpening involves reconstructing missing high-frequency information in multi-spectral images with low spatial resolution, using a higher-resolution panchromatic image as guidance. Although the inborn connection with frequency domain, existing pan-sharpening research has not almost investigated the potential solution upon frequency domain. To this end, we propose a novel Frequency Adaptive Mixture of Experts (FAME) learning framework for pan-sharpening, which consists of three key components: the Adaptive Frequency Separation Prediction Module, the Sub-Frequency Learning Expert Module, and the Expert Mixture Module. In detail, the first leverages the discrete cosine transform to perform frequency separation by predicting the frequency mask. On the basis of generated mask, the second with low-frequency MOE and high-frequency MOE takes account for enabling the effective low-frequency and high-frequency information reconstruction. Followed by, the final fusion module dynamically weights high-frequency and low-frequency MOE knowledge to adapt to remote sensing images with significant content variations. Quantitative and qualitative experiments over multiple datasets demonstrate that our method performs the best against other state-of-the-art ones and comprises a strong generalization ability for real-world scenes. Code will be made publicly at \url{https://github.com/alexhe101/FAME-Net}.
Pan-sharpening is a fundamental and significant task in the field of remote sensing imagery processing, in which high-resolution spatial details from panchromatic images are employed to enhance the spatial resolution of multi-spectral (MS) images. As the transformation from low spatial resolution MS image to high-resolution MS image is complex and highly non-linear, inspired by the powerful representation for non-linear relationships of deep neural networks, we introduce multi-scale feature extraction and residual learning into the basic convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture and prop…
This paper addresses the problem of remote sensing image pan-sharpening from the perspective of generative adversarial learning. We propose a novel deep neural network based method named PSGAN. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first attempts at producing high-quality pan-sharpened images with GANs. The PSGAN consists of two components: a generative network (i.e., generator) and a discriminative network (i.e., discriminator). The generator is designed to accept panchromatic (PAN) and multispectral (MS) images as inputs and maps them to the desired high-resolution (HR) MS images …

Multispectral (MS) image panchromatic (PAN) sharpening algorithms proposed to the remote sensing community are ever increasing in number and variety. Their aim is to sharpen a coarse spatial resolution MS image with a fine spatial resolution PAN image acquired simultaneously by a spaceborne or airborne Earth observation (EO) optical imaging sensor pair. Unfortunately, to date, no standard evaluation procedure for MS image PAN sharpening outcome and process is community agreed upon, in contrast with the Quality Assurance Framework for Earth Observation (QA4EO) guidelines proposed by the intergo…

In this paper, we address the issue of hyperspectral pan-sharpening, which consists in fusing a (low spatial resolution) hyperspectral image HX and a (high spatial resolution) panchromatic image P to obtain a high spatial resolution hyperspectral image. The problem is addressed under a variational convex constrained formulation. The objective favors high resolution spectral bands with level lines parallel to those of the panchromatic image. This term is balanced with a total variation term as regularizer. Fit-to-P data and fit-to-HX data constraints are effectively considered as mathematical c…
In the field of fusing multi-spectral and panchromatic images (Pan-sharpening), the impressive effectiveness of deep neural networks has been recently employed to overcome the drawbacks of traditional linear models and boost the fusing accuracy. However, to the best of our knowledge, existing research works are mainly based on simple and flat networks with relatively shallow architecture, which severely limited their performances. In this paper, the concept of residual learning has been introduced to form a very deep convolutional neural network to make a full use of the high non-linearity of …
Pan-sharpening is an important technique for remote sensing imaging systems to obtain high resolution multispectral images. Recently, deep learning has become the most popular tool for pan-sharpening. This paper develops a model-based deep pan-sharpening approach. Specifically, two optimization problems regularized by the deep prior are formulated, and they are separately responsible for the generative models for panchromatic images and low resolution multispectral images. Then, the two problems are solved by a gradient projection algorithm, and the iterative steps are generalized into two net…

Pan-sharpening aims at producing a high-resolution (HR) multi-spectral (MS) image from a low-resolution (LR) multi-spectral (MS) image and its corresponding panchromatic (PAN) image acquired by a same satellite. Inspired by a new fashion in recent deep learning community, we propose a novel Transformer based model for pan-sharpening. We explore the potential of Transformer in image feature extraction and fusion. Following the successful development of vision transformers, we design a two-stream network with the self-attention to extract the modality-specific features from the PAN and MS modali…

Remote sensing image fusion (also known as pan-sharpening) aims at generating high resolution multi-spectral (MS) image from inputs of a high spatial resolution single band panchromatic (PAN) image and a low spatial resolution multi-spectral image. Inspired by the astounding achievements of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in a variety of computer vision tasks, in this paper, we propose a two-stream fusion network (TFNet) to address the problem of pan-sharpening. Unlike previous CNN based methods that consider pan-sharpening as a super resolution problem and perform pan-sharpening in pixel…
An ideal fusion method preserves the Spectral information in fused image and adds spatial information to it with no spectral distortion. Recently wavelet kalman filter method is proposed which uses ARSIS concept to fuses MS and PAN images. This method is applied in a multiscale version, i.e. the variable index is scale instead of time. With the aim of fusion we present a more detailed study on this model and discuss about rationality of its assumptions such as first order markov model and Gaussian distribution of the posterior density. Finally, we propose a method using wavelet Kalman Particle…
Pan-sharpening is a process of merging a high-resolution (HR) panchromatic (PAN) image and its corresponding low-resolution (LR) multi-spectral (MS) image to create an HR-MS and pan-sharpened image. However, due to the different sensors' locations, characteristics and acquisition time, PAN and MS image pairs often tend to have various amounts of misalignment. Conventional deep-learning-based methods that were trained with such misaligned PAN-MS image pairs suffer from diverse artifacts such as double-edge and blur artifacts in the resultant PAN-sharpened images. In this paper, we propose a nov…

Recently, many deep-learning-based pan-sharpening methods have been proposed for generating high-quality pan-sharpened (PS) satellite images. These methods focused on various types of convolutional neural network (CNN) structures, which were trained by simply minimizing a spectral loss between network outputs and the corresponding high-resolution multi-spectral (MS) target images. However, due to different sensor characteristics and acquisition times, high-resolution panchromatic (PAN) and low-resolution MS image pairs tend to have large pixel misalignments, especially for moving objects in th…

Most existing deep learning-based pan-sharpening methods have several widely recognized issues, such as spectral distortion and insufficient spatial texture enhancement, we propose a novel pan-sharpening convolutional neural network based on a high-pass modification block. Different from existing methods, the proposed block is designed to learn the high-pass information, leading to enhance spatial information in each band of the multi-spectral-resolution images. To facilitate the generation of visually appealing pan-sharpened images, we propose a perceptual loss function and further optimize t…
Deep learning based pan-sharpening has received significant research interest in recent years. Most of existing methods fall into the supervised learning framework in which they down-sample the multi-spectral (MS) and panchromatic (PAN) images and regard the original MS images as ground truths to form training samples. Although impressive performance could be achieved, they have difficulties generalizing to the original full-scale images due to the scale gap, which makes them lack of practicability. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised generative adversarial framework that learns from the…
The fusion of multispectral and panchromatic images is always dubbed pansharpening. Most of the available deep learning-based pan-sharpening methods sharpen the multispectral images through a one-step scheme, which strongly depends on the reconstruction ability of the network. However, remote sensing images always have large variations, as a result, these one-step methods are vulnerable to the error accumulation and thus incapable of preserving spatial details as well as the spectral information. In this paper, we propose a novel two-step model for pan-sharpening that sharpens the MS image thr…

Pan-sharpening aims at fusing a low-resolution (LR) multi-spectral (MS) image and a high-resolution (HR) panchromatic (PAN) image acquired by a satellite to generate an HR MS image. Many deep learning based methods have been developed in the past few years. However, since there are no intended HR MS images as references for learning, almost all of the existing methods down-sample the MS and PAN images and regard the original MS images as targets to form a supervised setting for training. These methods may perform well on the down-scaled images, however, they generalize poorly to the full-resol…

Dominant pan-sharpening frameworks simply concatenate the MS stream and the PAN stream once at a specific level. This way of fusion neglects the multi-level spectral-spatial correlation between the two streams, which is vital to improving the fusion performance. In consideration of this, we propose a Multi-level and Enhanced Spectral-Spatial Fusion Network (MESSFN) with the following innovations: First, to fully exploit and strengthen the above correlation, a Hierarchical Multi-level Fusion Architecture (HMFA) is carefully designed. A novel Spectral-Spatial (SS) stream is established to hierar…

Pansharpening refers to the fusion of a panchromatic image with a high spatial resolution and a multispectral image with a low spatial resolution, aiming to obtain a high spatial resolution multispectral image. In this paper, we propose a novel deep neural network architecture with level-domain based loss function for pansharpening by taking into account the following double-type structures, \emph{i.e.,} double-level, double-branch, and double-direction, called as triple-double network (TDNet). By using the structure of TDNet, the spatial details of the panchromatic image can be fully exploite…

Panchromatic (PAN) and multi-spectral (MS) image fusion, named Pan-sharpening, refers to super-resolve the low-resolution (LR) multi-spectral (MS) images in the spatial domain to generate the expected high-resolution (HR) MS images, conditioning on the corresponding high-resolution PAN images. In this paper, we present a simple yet effective \textit{alternating reverse filtering network} for pan-sharpening. Inspired by the classical reverse filtering that reverses images to the status before filtering, we formulate pan-sharpening as an alternately iterative reverse filtering process, which fus…
Remote sensing image fusion technology (pan-sharpening) is an important means to improve the information capacity of remote sensing images. Inspired by the efficient arameter space posteriori sampling of Bayesian neural networks, in this paper we propose a Bayesian Generative Adversarial Network based on Preconditioned Stochastic Gradient Langevin Dynamics (PGSLD-BGAN) to improve pan-sharpening tasks. Unlike many traditional generative models that consider only one optimal solution (might be locally optimal), the proposed PGSLD-BGAN performs Bayesian inference on the network parameters, and ex…
Pansharpening is an essential preprocessing step for remote sensing image processing. Although deep learning (DL) approaches performed well on this task, current upsampling methods used in these approaches only utilize the local information of each pixel in the low-resolution multispectral (LRMS) image while neglecting to exploit its global information as well as the cross-modal information of the guiding panchromatic (PAN) image, which limits their performance improvement. To address this issue, this paper develops a novel probability-based global cross-modal upsampling (PGCU) method for pan-…

In remote sensing, image fusion technique is a useful tool used to fuse high spatial resolution panchromatic images (PAN) with lower spatial resolution multispectral images (MS) to create a high spatial resolution multispectral of image fusion (F) while preserving the spectral information in the multispectral image (MS).There are many PAN sharpening techniques or Pixel-Based image fusion techniques that have been developed to try to enhance the spatial resolution and the spectral property preservation of the MS. This paper attempts to undertake the study of image fusion, by using two types of …
An ideal fusion method preserves the Spectral information in fused image and adds spatial information to it with no spectral distortion. Among the existing fusion algorithms, the contourlet-based fusion method is the most frequently discussed one in recent publications, because the contourlet has the ability to capture and link the point of discontinuities to form a linear structure. The Brovey is a popular pan-sharpening method owing to its efficiency and high spatial resolution. This method can be explained by mathematical model of optical remote sensing sensors. This study presents a new fu…

Hyperspectral image (HSI) with high spectral resolution often suffers from low spatial resolution owing to the limitations of imaging sensors. Image fusion is an effective and economical way to enhance the spatial resolution of HSI, which combines HSI with higher spatial resolution multispectral image (MSI) of the same scenario. In the past years, many HSI and MSI fusion algorithms are introduced to obtain high-resolution HSI. However, it lacks a full-scale review for the newly proposed HSI and MSI fusion approaches. To tackle this problem,this work gives a comprehensive review and new guideli…
Currently, when reliable training datasets are available, deep learning methods dominate the proposed solutions for image super-resolution. However, for remote sensing benchmarks, it is very expensive to obtain high spatial resolution images. Most of the super-resolution methods use down-sampling techniques to simulate low and high spatial resolution pairs and construct the training samples. To solve this issue, the paper introduces a novel public remote sensing dataset (Alsat2B) of low and high spatial resolution images (10m and 2.5m respectively) for the single-image super-resolution task. T…
Transforming a thermal infrared image into a robust perceptual colour Visible image is an ill-posed problem due to the differences in their spectral domains and in the objects' representations. Objects appear in one spectrum but not necessarily in the other, and the thermal signature of a single object may have different colours in its Visible representation. This makes a direct mapping from thermal to Visible images impossible and necessitates a solution that preserves texture captured in the thermal spectrum while predicting the possible colour for certain objects. In this work, a deep learn…

Current deep learning based segmentation models often generalize poorly between domains due to insufficient training data. In real-world clinical applications, cross-domain image analysis tools are in high demand since medical images from different domains are often needed to achieve a precise diagnosis. An important example in radiology is generalizing from non-contrast CT to contrast enhanced CTs. Contrast enhanced CT scans at different phases are used to enhance certain pathologies or organs. Many existing cross-domain image-to-image translation models have been shown to improve cross-domai…
