Target-adaptive CNN-based pansharpening
We recently proposed a convolutional neural network (CNN) for remote sensing
image pansharpening obtaining a significant performance gain over the state of
the art. In this paper, we explore a number of architectural and training
variations to this baseline, achieving further performance gains with a
lightweight network which trains very fast. Leveraging on this latter property,
we propose a target-adaptive usage modality which ensures a very good
performance also in the presence of a mismatch w.r.t. the training set, and
even across different sensors. The proposed method, published online as an
off-the-shelf software tool, allows users to perform fast and high-quality
CNN-based pansharpening of their own target images on general-purpose hardware
An information adaptive system study report and development plan
The purpose of the information adaptive system (IAS) study was to determine how some selected Earth resource applications may be processed onboard a spacecraft and to provide a detailed preliminary IAS design for these applications. Detailed investigations of a number of applications were conducted with regard to IAS and three were selected for further analysis. Areas of future research and development include algorithmic specifications, system design specifications, and IAS recommended time lines
Investigation related to multispectral imaging systems
A summary of technical progress made during a five year research program directed toward the development of operational information systems based on multispectral sensing and the use of these systems in earth-resource survey applications is presented. Efforts were undertaken during this program to: (1) improve the basic understanding of the many facets of multispectral remote sensing, (2) develop methods for improving the accuracy of information generated by remote sensing systems, (3) improve the efficiency of data processing and information extraction techniques to enhance the cost-effectiveness of remote sensing systems, (4) investigate additional problems having potential remote sensing solutions, and (5) apply the existing and developing technology for specific users and document and transfer that technology to the remote sensing community
Multispectral and Hyperspectral Image Fusion by MS/HS Fusion Net
Hyperspectral imaging can help better understand the characteristics of
different materials, compared with traditional image systems. However, only
high-resolution multispectral (HrMS) and low-resolution hyperspectral (LrHS)
images can generally be captured at video rate in practice. In this paper, we
propose a model-based deep learning approach for merging an HrMS and LrHS
images to generate a high-resolution hyperspectral (HrHS) image. In specific,
we construct a novel MS/HS fusion model which takes the observation models of
low-resolution images and the low-rankness knowledge along the spectral mode of
HrHS image into consideration. Then we design an iterative algorithm to solve
the model by exploiting the proximal gradient method. And then, by unfolding
the designed algorithm, we construct a deep network, called MS/HS Fusion Net,
with learning the proximal operators and model parameters by convolutional
neural networks. Experimental results on simulated and real data substantiate
the superiority of our method both visually and quantitatively as compared with
state-of-the-art methods along this line of research.Comment: 10 pages, 7 figure
