Coupled Convolutional Neural Network with Adaptive Response Function Learning for Unsupervised Hyperspectral Super-Resolution
Due to the limitations of hyperspectral imaging systems, hyperspectral
imagery (HSI) often suffers from poor spatial resolution, thus hampering many
applications of the imagery. Hyperspectral super-resolution refers to fusing
HSI and MSI to generate an image with both high spatial and high spectral
resolutions. Recently, several new methods have been proposed to solve this
fusion problem, and most of these methods assume that the prior information of
the Point Spread Function (PSF) and Spectral Response Function (SRF) are known.
However, in practice, this information is often limited or unavailable. In this
work, an unsupervised deep learning-based fusion method - HyCoNet - that can
solve the problems in HSI-MSI fusion without the prior PSF and SRF information
is proposed. HyCoNet consists of three coupled autoencoder nets in which the
HSI and MSI are unmixed into endmembers and abundances based on the linear
unmixing model. Two special convolutional layers are designed to act as a
bridge that coordinates with the three autoencoder nets, and the PSF and SRF
parameters are learned adaptively in the two convolution layers during the
training process. Furthermore, driven by the joint loss function, the proposed
method is straightforward and easily implemented in an end-to-end training
manner. The experiments performed in the study demonstrate that the proposed
method performs well and produces robust results for different datasets and
arbitrary PSFs and SRFs
