PAKAN: Pixel Adaptive Kolmogorov-Arnold Network Modules for Pansharpening

Pansharpening aims to fuse high-resolution spatial details from panchromatic images with the rich spectral information of multispectral images. Existing deep neural networks for this task typically rely on static activation functions, which limit their ability to dynamically model the complex, non-linear mappings required for optimal spatial-spectral fusion. While the recently introduced Kolmogorov-Arnold Network (KAN) utilizes learnable activation functions, traditional KANs lack dynamic adaptability during inference. To address this limitation, we propose a Pixel Adaptive Kolmogorov-Arnold Network framework. Starting from KAN, we design two adaptive variants: a 2D Adaptive KAN that generates spline summation weights across spatial dimensions and a 1D Adaptive KAN that generates them across spectral channels. These two components are then assembled into PAKAN 2to1 for feature fusion and PAKAN 1to1 for feature refinement. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed modules significantly enhance network performance, proving the effectiveness and superiority of pixel-adaptive activation in pansharpening tasks.

DMAConv: Dual Mask-Adaptive Convolution for Remote Sensing Pansharpening

Pansharpening aims to fuse a high-resolution panchromatic image with a low-resolution multispectral image. Existing deep learning methods, including recent adaptive convolutions, struggle with regional heterogeneity in remote sensing images and often incur prohibitive computational costs. To address these challenges, we propose Dual Mask-Adaptive Convolution (DMAConv), a novel operator that dynamically allocates computational resources based on feature characteristics. DMAConv first employs a lightweight module to generate soft and hard masks. The hard mask separates features into a compact branch for processing redundant information globally and a focused branch that models complex, heterogeneous regions with greater computational investment. The soft mask then preliminarily modulates the input features for both branches. This dual-branch, mask-adaptive design significantly enhances feature representation while minimizing computational overhead. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our method achieves SOTA on a broad array of quantitative benchmarks, with substantially lower parameter counts and the minimal computational cost among adaptive convolution models.

Two-Stage Random Alternation Framework for One-Shot Pansharpening

Deep learning has substantially advanced pansharpening, achieving impressive fusion quality. However, a prevalent limitation is that conventional deep learning models, which typically rely on training datasets, often exhibit suboptimal generalization to unseen real-world image pairs. This restricts their practical utility when faced with real-world scenarios not included in the training datasets. To overcome this, we introduce a two-stage random alternating framework (TRA-PAN) that performs instance-specific optimization for any given Multispectral(MS)/Panchromatic(PAN) pair, ensuring robust and high-quality fusion. TRA-PAN effectively integrates strong supervision constraints from reduced-resolution images with the physical characteristics of the full-resolution images. The first stage introduces a pre-training procedure, which includes Degradation-Aware Modeling (DAM) to capture spectral degradation mappings, alongside a warm-up procedure designed to reduce training time and mitigate the adverse effects of reduced-resolution data. The second stage employs Random Alternation Optimization (RAO), randomly alternating between reduced- and full-resolution images to refine the fusion model progressively. This adaptive, per-instance optimization strategy, operating in a one-shot manner for each MS/PAN pair, yields superior high-resolution multispectral images. Experimental results demonstrate that TRA-PAN outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods in quantitative metrics and visual quality in real-world scenarios, underscoring its enhanced practical applicability and robustness.

A General Adaptive Dual-level Weighting Mechanism for Remote Sensing Pansharpening

Currently, deep learning-based methods for remote sensing pansharpening have advanced rapidly. However, many existing methods struggle to fully leverage feature heterogeneity and redundancy, thereby limiting their effectiveness. We use the covariance matrix to model the feature heterogeneity and redundancy and propose Correlation-Aware Covariance Weighting (CACW) to adjust them. CACW captures these correlations through the covariance matrix, which is then processed by a nonlinear function to generate weights for adjustment. Building upon CACW, we introduce a general adaptive dual-level weighting mechanism (ADWM) to address these challenges from two key perspectives, enhancing a wide range of existing deep-learning methods. First, Intra-Feature Weighting (IFW) evaluates correlations among channels within each feature to reduce redundancy and enhance unique information. Second, Cross-Feature Weighting (CFW) adjusts contributions across layers based on inter-layer correlations, refining the final output. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superior performance of ADWM compared to recent state-of-the-art (SOTA) methods. Furthermore, we validate the effectiveness of our approach through generality experiments, redundancy visualization, comparison experiments, key variables and complexity analysis, and ablation studies. Our code is available at https://github.com/Jie-1203/ADWM.

Wavelet-Assisted Multi-Frequency Attention Network for Pansharpening

Pansharpening aims to combine a high-resolution panchromatic (PAN) image with a low-resolution multispectral (LRMS) image to produce a high-resolution multispectral (HRMS) image. Although pansharpening in the frequency domain offers clear advantages, most existing methods either continue to operate solely in the spatial domain or fail to fully exploit the benefits of the frequency domain. To address this issue, we innovatively propose Multi-Frequency Fusion Attention (MFFA), which leverages wavelet transforms to cleanly separate frequencies and enable lossless reconstruction across different frequency domains. Then, we generate Frequency-Query, Spatial-Key, and Fusion-Value based on the physical meanings represented by different features, which enables a more effective capture of specific information in the frequency domain. Additionally, we focus on the preservation of frequency features across different operations. On a broader level, our network employs a wavelet pyramid to progressively fuse information across multiple scales. Compared to previous frequency domain approaches, our network better prevents confusion and loss of different frequency features during the fusion process. Quantitative and qualitative experiments on multiple datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms existing approaches and shows significant generalization capabilities for real-world scenarios.

ResPanDiff: Diffusion Model for Pansharpening by Inferring Residual Inference

The implementation of diffusion-based pansharpening task is predominantly constrained by its slow inference speed, which results from numerous sampling steps. Despite the existing techniques aiming to accelerate sampling, they often compromise performance when fusing multi-source images. To ease this limitation, we introduce a novel and efficient diffusion model named Diffusion Model for Pansharpening by Inferring Residual Inference (ResPanDiff), which significantly reduces the number of diffusion steps without sacrificing the performance to tackle pansharpening task. In ResPanDiff, we innovatively propose a Markov chain that transits from noisy residuals to the residuals between the LRMS and HRMS images, thereby reducing the number of sampling steps and enhancing performance. Additionally, we design the latent space to help model extract more features at the encoding stage, Shallow Cond-Injection~(SC-I) to help model fetch cond-injected hidden features with higher dimensions, and loss functions to give a better guidance for the residual generation task. enabling the model to achieve superior performance in residual generation. Furthermore, experimental evaluations on pansharpening datasets demonstrate that the proposed method achieves superior outcomes compared to recent state-of-the-art~(SOTA) techniques, requiring only 15 sampling steps, which reduces over $90\%$ step compared with the benchmark diffusion models. Our experiments also include thorough discussions and ablation studies to underscore the effectiveness of our approach.

Tensor Decomposition Based Attention Module for Spiking Neural Networks

The attention mechanism has been proven to be an effective way to improve spiking neural network (SNN). However, based on the fact that the current SNN input data flow is split into tensors to process on GPUs, none of the previous works consider the properties of tensors to implement an attention module. This inspires us to rethink current SNN from the perspective of tensor-relevant theories. Using tensor decomposition, we design the \textit{projected full attention} (PFA) module, which demonstrates excellent results with linearly growing parameters. Specifically, PFA is composed by the \textit{linear projection of spike tensor} (LPST) module and \textit{attention map composing} (AMC) module. In LPST, we start by compressing the original spike tensor into three projected tensors using a single property-preserving strategy with learnable parameters for each dimension. Then, in AMC, we exploit the inverse procedure of the tensor decomposition process to combine the three tensors into the attention map using a so-called connecting factor. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed PFA module, we integrate it into the widely used VGG and ResNet architectures for classification tasks. Our method achieves state-of-the-art performance on both static and dynamic benchmark datasets, surpassing the existing SNN models with Transformer-based and CNN-based backbones.
