Pansharpening via Frequency-Aware Fusion Network with Explicit Similarity Constraints

The process of fusing a high spatial resolution (HR) panchromatic (PAN) image and a low spatial resolution (LR) multispectral (MS) image to obtain an HRMS image is known as pansharpening. With the development of convolutional neural networks, the performance of pansharpening methods has been improved, however, the blurry effects and the spectral distortion still exist in their fusion results due to the insufficiency in details learning and the frequency mismatch between MSand PAN. Therefore, the improvement of spatial details at the premise of reducing spectral distortion is still a challenge. In this paper, we propose a frequency-aware fusion network (FAFNet) together with a novel high-frequency feature similarity loss to address above mentioned problems. FAFNet is mainly composed of two kinds of blocks, where the frequency aware blocks aim to extract features in the frequency domain with the help of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) layers, and the frequency fusion blocks reconstruct and transform the features from frequency domain to spatial domain with the assistance of inverse DWT (IDWT) layers. Finally, the fusion results are obtained through a convolutional block. In order to learn the correspondence, we also propose a high-frequency feature similarity loss to constrain the HF features derived from PAN and MS branches, so that HF features of PAN can reasonably be used to supplement that of MS. Experimental results on three datasets at both reduced- and full-resolution demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method compared with several state-of-the-art pansharpening models.

PC-GANs: Progressive Compensation Generative Adversarial Networks for Pan-sharpening

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 through the progressive compensation of the spatial and spectral information. Firstly, a deep multiscale guided generative adversarial network is used to preliminarily enhance the spatial resolution of the MS image. Starting from the pre-sharpened MS image in the coarse domain, our approach then progressively refines the spatial and spectral residuals over a couple of generative adversarial networks (GANs) that have reverse architectures. The whole model is composed of triple GANs, and based on the specific architecture, a joint compensation loss function is designed to enable the triple GANs to be trained simultaneously. Moreover, the spatial-spectral residual compensation structure proposed in this paper can be extended to other pan-sharpening methods to further enhance their fusion results. Extensive experiments are performed on different datasets and the results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed method.
