Abstract
The fusion of a low-spatial-resolution hyperspectral image (HSI) (LR-HSI) with its corresponding high-spatial-resolution multispectral image (MSI) (HR-MSI) to reconstruct a high-spatial-resolution HSI (HR-HSI) has been a significant subject in recent years. Nevertheless, it is still difficult to achieve the cross-mode information fusion of spatial mode and spectral mode when reconstructing HR-HSI for the existing methods. In this article, based on a convolutional neural network (CNN), an interpretable spatial-spectral reconstruction network (SSR-NET) is proposed for more efficient HSI and MSI fusion. More specifically, the proposed SSR-NET is a physical straightforward model that consists of three components: 1) cross-mode message inserting (CMMI); this operation can produce the preliminary fused HR-HSI, preserving the most valuable information of LR-HSI and HR-MSI; 2) spatial reconstruction network (SpatRN); the SpatRN concentrates on reconstructing the lost spatial information of LR-HSI with the guidance of spatial edge loss ( <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">L</i> <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> spat</sub> ); and 3) spectral reconstruction network (SpecRN); the SpecRN pays attention to reconstruct the lost spectral information of HR-MSI under the constraint of spatial edge loss ( <i xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">L</i> <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> spec</sub> ). Comparative experiments are conducted on six HSI data sets of Urban, Pavia University (PU), Pavia Center (PC), Botswana, Indian Pines (IP), and Washington DC Mall (WDCM), and the proposed SSR-NET achieves the superior or competitive results in comparison with seven state-of-the-art methods.
