Title
Psgan: A Generative Adversarial Network For Remote Sensing Image Pan-Sharpening
Abstract
Remote sensing image fusion (also known as pan-sharpening) aims to generate a high resolution multi-spectral image from inputs of a high spatial resolution single band panchromatic (PAN) image and a low spatial resolution multi-spectral (MS) image. In this paper, we propose PSGAN, a generative adversarial network (GAN) for remote sensing image pan-sharpening. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt at producing high quality pan-sharpened images with GANs. The PSGAN consists of two parts. Firstly, a two-stream fusion architecture is designed to generate the desired high resolution multi-spectral images, then a fully convolutional network serving as a discriminator is applied to distinct "real" or "pan-sharpened" MS images. Experiments on images acquired by Quickbird and GaoFen-1 satellites demonstrate that the proposed PSGAN can fuse PAN and MS images effectively and significantly improve the results over the state of the art traditional and CNN based pan-sharpening methods.
