Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of remote sensing image processing and computer vision, and particularly relates to a remote sensing image space-spectrum fusion method based on deep learning, and in particular to a frequency-constrained remote sensing image space-spectrum fusion method and system for a spectrum-uncovered band. BACKGROUND

[0002] Remote sensing imaging is limited by the physical mechanism of the sensor. To obtain high spatial resolution images, the instantaneous field of view needs to be reduced, and accordingly, the electromagnetic radiation energy received by the sensor will be reduced, resulting in a decrease in spectral resolution. Space-spectrum fusion aims to solve the problem of mutual restriction between spatial resolution and spectral resolution in remote sensing images, and can integrate the complementary information of high spatial resolution panchromatic images and low spatial resolution multispectral images to obtain high space-spectrum resolution images that can meet higher precision remote sensing requirements.

[0003] At present, the main fusion methods can be divided into four categories: component replacement, multi-resolution analysis, variational optimization and deep learning. The component replacement method uses a forward spectral transformation algorithm to separate the spectral information and spatial information of the low-resolution multispectral image, and the fused image can be obtained by replacing the spatial component of the panchromatic image with the inverse transformation. However, this method has serious spectral distortion because the separated spatial component still contains some spectral information. The multi-resolution analysis method uses wavelet transform or Laplace pyramid decomposition to decompose the image into multiple scales, and then injects the spatial structure information of the panchromatic image into the multispectral image at different scales. This method often has good spectral fidelity performance, but the spatial information enhancement is insufficient. The variational optimization method regards fusion as an ill-posed inverse problem, and constructs the relationship between the ideal image and the observed image through the Bayesian theory or the sparse representation theory, and then optimizes the model through the optimization algorithm. This method has a solid mathematical foundation and a rigorous logical system, but the effect is severely dependent on prior knowledge and reasonable assumptions, and the time complexity is high, making it difficult to realize fast solution of the fused image and large-scale application of the method. The deep learning method has been widely applied in space-spectrum fusion due to its strong nonlinear feature extraction and learning ability, and has produced a large number of algorithms, which have achieved satisfactory results overall.

[0004] However, most of the existing deep learning methods adopt a supervised learning method to learn the mapping relationship between the original image and the fused image from a large number of simulated low-resolution training samples. This method applies the trained model to real images based on the scale invariant assumption, but this approach is easily affected by the scale difference, resulting in blurred fused images. Existing unsupervised learning methods only constrain the fused image by observing the image, and the image degradation relationship is unreasonable, making it difficult to construct the constraint relationship. In addition, most of the current multi-spectral fusion research focuses on the red, green, blue and near-infrared four bands of multi-spectral data, and the spectral range is similar to that of the panchromatic image. In such a scene, the fusion method usually works well. However, for some sensors, there are some multi-spectral bands that are not covered by the spectral range of the panchromatic image, such as the Landsat-8 OLI sensor. The spectral coverage range of the 15-meter spatial resolution panchromatic image is 500-680nm, while the spectral coverage range of the near-infrared band (5th band) of the 30-meter spatial resolution multi-spectral image is 850-880nm, and the spectral coverage range of the two short-wave infrared bands (6th and 7th bands) is 1570-1650nm and 2100-2290nm, respectively. They are very different from the spectral range of the panchromatic band, and the correlation between the spectral coverage band and the panchromatic image is significantly reduced, so the spatial information is difficult to inject in the process of multi-spectral fusion, and the spatial enhancement performance is poor, which seriously affects the practical application of the fused image in vegetation information extraction, drought monitoring and other aspects. The existing various methods do not consider this problem, and adopt an equal fusion strategy for each multi-spectral band, which makes it difficult to achieve satisfactory fusion results for spectral non-coverage bands as well as visible light bands. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a multi-spectral fusion method that takes into account the characteristics of spectral non-coverage bands and enables all multi-spectral bands to achieve balanced spatial enhancement.

[0049] In view of the problem that remote sensing imaging is limited by the physical mechanism of the sensor, resulting in that the spatial-spectral resolution of a single remote sensing image cannot be compatible, the present application can obtain a high spatial resolution multispectral image by fusing the high spatial resolution panchromatic image and the low spatial resolution multispectral image of the same scene on the ground provided by the satellite, which is convenient for subsequent application. In view of the problem that the multispectral image obtained by some satellite sensors has a band not covered by the spectral range of the panchromatic image, resulting in that it is difficult to effectively inject the spatial information of the panchromatic image into the band in the fusion process, the present application simultaneously adopts supervised and unsupervised learning strategies to construct a fusion network facing the frequency constraint of the spectral non-covered band, so as to obtain a high spatial resolution multispectral image with equal fusion effect of each band.

[0050] See Figure 1The application provides a spectral-uncovered-waveband-oriented frequency-constrained remote sensing image space-spectrum fusion method, which comprises the following steps:

[0051] Step 1: Collect panchromatic images and multispectral images obtained by satellite sensors containing spectral-uncovered wavebands, perform image preprocessing, and construct a reduced resolution and full resolution sample library for network training.

[0052] Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:

[0053] Step 1.1: Geometrically register the original observed panchromatic images and multispectral images to ensure that the same named ground objects are strictly aligned;

[0054] Step 1.2: Normalize the pixel values of the aligned panchromatic images and multispectral images, and transform the pixel values to the [0, 1] interval;

[0055] Step 1.3: According to the ratio of the spatial resolutions of the panchromatic images and the multispectral images, perform downsampling on the two images by using a bicubic interpolation algorithm;

[0056] Step 1.4: Crop the original observed image pairs and the reduced resolution image pairs to construct a reduced resolution and full resolution training sample library.

[0057] Step 2: Based on a supervised-unsupervised parallel learning strategy, construct a spectral-uncovered-waveband-oriented frequency-constrained fusion network, and design a loss function comprising a supervised constraint, a dual-domain spectral constraint and a cumulative frequency constraint.

[0058] The fusion network respectively takes the panchromatic-multispectral image pairs of reduced resolution and full resolution as inputs, respectively constructs a reduced resolution fusion branch and a full resolution fusion branch, and each branch comprises a band self-guided attention module and a multi-scale residual block. The output features of the band self-guided attention modules of the two branches will pass through a cross-resolution cross-channel interaction module, and then the output of the two multi-scale residual blocks is used to correct the output of the module, to obtain deep low-resolution features and deep high-resolution features, which are respectively obtained through a feature reconstruction module to obtain a low-resolution fusion image and a high-resolution fusion image. The low-resolution fusion image and the original low-resolution multispectral image are used to calculate the supervised loss; the high-resolution fusion image and the up-sampled result of the original low-resolution multispectral image are used to calculate the dual-domain spectral loss; and the high-resolution panchromatic image is used to calculate the cumulative frequency loss.

[0059] Specifically, the method comprises the following steps:

[0060] Step 2.1: input the reduced resolution panchromatic-multispectral image pair (P1, M1) and the full resolution panchromatic-multispectral image pair (P2, M2); and Step 2.2: the band self-guided attention module of the reduced resolution fusion branch is used to extract the features of the input image pair (P1, M1) to obtain the low-resolution feature map (F1); and ), and extract group features and frequency features, where B The number of bands in a multispectral image. H and W The number of rows and columns in the panchromatic image. h and w The number of rows and columns in the multispectral image. r The ratio of the spatial resolution of the two images, i.e. H / h .

[0061] Specifically, it includes:

[0062] Step 2.1.1: For r Multispectral images with upsampling resolution (x times) and Perform 3×3 convolution operations band by band, treating each channel as a group, and convolving each group separately, resulting in a channel count of 32×3. B The grouping characteristics can be expressed as:

[0063]

[0064] in To output feature maps in groups g middle( i , j The value of the position. It is a group g The Middle m Convolutional kernels for each input channel, This represents a local region of the input multispectral image, where K represents the number of pixels within each local receptive field of the convolution kernel, and G is the number of groups in the grouped convolution. After completing the convolution calculation for each group, the output feature maps of all groups are concatenated to form the grouped feature maps of the low- and high-resolution multispectral images. and .

[0065] Step 2.1.2: Apply a Laplacian operator to the panchromatic image for high-pass filtering to obtain its high-frequency texture image, and then perform a 1×1 convolution to form the frequency feature maps of the low- and high-resolution panchromatic images. and This can be represented as:

[0066]

[0067] Step 2.2: Constructing the band self-guided attention module. In this module, the frequency feature map is first multiplied element by element with each feature group in the grouping feature map to enhance the spatial information of each feature group; then each feature group is multiplied element by element with the adjacent feature group, the first feature group is multiplied with the second feature group, the second feature group is multiplied with the third feature group, and so on, the last feature group is multiplied with the first feature group, realizing the gradual injection of spectral coverage band features to spectral non-coverage features, and finally using three layers of 3x3 convolution and ReLU activation function to restore the features to 32 channels, obtaining low and high resolution band self-guided feature maps With The process can be represented as:

[0068]

[0069] Step 2.3: Constructing a multi-scale residual block. In this module, the band self-guided feature map will be convolved with a convolution kernel size of 1, 3, 5, and 7, respectively, then the multi-scale feature maps are spliced and passed through 1x1 convolution, ReLU activation function, three residual blocks, and 1x1 convolution to obtain low and high resolution multi-scale fusion features With .

[0070] Step 2.4: Constructing a cross-resolution and cross-channel interaction learning module. To enable effective information interaction between the low and high resolution branches, and to make full use of the frequency feature map to enhance the spatial information, the two sets of band self-guided feature maps and the two sets of frequency feature maps will pass through several cross-resolution and cross-channel interaction modules. In each module, the low-band self-guided feature map and the low-frequency feature map will pass through a high-frequency attention feature fusion module to obtain a low intermediate layer fusion feature, and the high-band self-guided feature map and the high-frequency feature map will also pass through a high-frequency attention feature fusion module to obtain a high intermediate layer fusion feature. Then, the channel attention mechanism is applied to the two sets of fusion features to obtain low and high channel weights. Subsequently, the low channel weight is multiplied by the high intermediate layer fusion feature, and after downsampling, it is added to the low intermediate layer fusion feature; the high channel weight is multiplied by the low intermediate layer fusion feature, and after upsampling, it is added to the high intermediate layer fusion feature. The process can be represented as:

[0072] wherein, HPAFF represents a feature attention fusion module for deep coupling of frequency feature maps and spectral features; Channel_Att represents a channel attention mechanism for obtaining the weight of each channel in the feature map; With are respectively rDown-sampling and up-sampling processes with double spatial resolution; With are the low and high resolution feature maps output by the first cross-resolution cross-channel interaction module, respectively, and are taken as input data together with With into the next cross-resolution cross-channel interaction module. After M modules, the interaction learning results With .

[0073] Step 2.5: The low and high resolution multi-scale fusion features are used to further correct the interaction learning results of each resolution, which can be expressed as:

[0074]

[0075] With are the low and high resolution final feature maps before the fusion result reconstruction.

[0076] Step 2.6: Construct the fusion result reconstruction module. For After the reconstruction convolution sequence, the low resolution fusion image is obtained. After up-sampling, the high resolution fusion image is obtained. The reconstruction convolution sequence of the low and high resolutions is 3x3 convolution, LeakyReLU activation, 3x3 convolution, LeakyReLU activation, and 1x1 convolution.

[0077] Step 2.7: Construct the loss function.

[0078] Step 2.7.1: Supervised loss. The loss between the original observed low resolution multispectral and low resolution fusion image is calculated using the 2-norm, which can be expressed as:

[0079]

[0080] wherein N denotes the batchsize size, , M (n) denote the nth low resolution fusion image and low resolution multispectral image in each batchsize, respectively.

[0081] Step 2.7.2: Dual-domain spectral loss. The loss between the up-sampled image of the original observed low resolution multispectral and the high resolution fusion image, including the constraints of the image domain and the gradient domain, can be expressed as:

[0082]

[0083] in F represents the gradient operation along the channel dimension of the image. (n) , These represent the nth high-resolution fused image and the low-resolution multispectral upsampled image within each batchsize, respectively.

[0084] Step 2.7.3: Cumulative Frequency Loss. This refers to the band-by-band cumulative loss between the Laplacian high-frequency image of the panchromatic image after band-by-band histogram matching of the low-resolution multispectral image and the Laplacian high-frequency image of the high-resolution fused image. It can be expressed as:

[0085]

[0086] in, b Indicates the first b Each band, This indicates that histogram matching is performed separately for each band of the low-resolution multispectral image. B Band panchromatic image, F represents high-resolution fused image. This process can be represented as:

[0087]

[0088] in, and Let M represent the mean and standard deviation of the image, respectively. b This represents the b-th band of the low-resolution multispectral image.

[0089] Step 2.7.4: Weight the three loss functions to construct the overall loss function, which can be expressed as:

[0090]

[0091] These represent the weights of the three loss functions.

[0092] Step 3: Using the training dataset constructed in Step 1, train the fusion network constructed in Step 2 until convergence;

[0093] Step 4: Using the converged fusion network trained in Step 3, fuse the high-resolution panchromatic image and the low-resolution multispectral image to be tested. The final output high-resolution fused image is the required high spatial resolution multispectral image.

Then, a supervised-unsupervised parallel learning strategy is adopted to construct a fusion network embedded with a band self-guided attention module, a cross-resolution cross-channel interaction module, a multi-scale residual block and a reconstruction module. A loss function containing a supervised constraint, a dual-domain spectral constraint and an accumulated frequency constraint is established. The low-resolution and high-resolution panchromatic-multispectral sample pairs are input for training until the network converges. Through the trained network, the high-resolution panchromatic image and the low-resolution multispectral image to be processed are fused to obtain a high spatial resolution multispectral image. The present application can overcome the problem that the previous method ignores the characteristics of the spectral non-covered band, and effectively enhances the spatial detail information after fusion of the spectral non-covered band while maintaining the fusion effect of the spectral covered band, so that all multispectral bands can achieve balanced fusion effect.
