High-Fidelity Component Substitution Pansharpening by the Fitting of Substitution Data

摘要

Due to the difference of “mean information” between substitution component and substituted component, spectral distortion often occurs in component substitution (CS) pansharpening. In this paper, a data fitting scheme is adopted to improve spectral quality in image fusion based on well-established CS approach. A generalized CS framework that is capable of modeling any CS image fusion method is also presented. In this framework, instead of injecting detail information of panchromatic (Pan) image into substituted component, the data fitting strategy is designed to adjust the mean information of Pan image in the construction of substitution component. The data fitting scheme involves two matrix subtractions and one matrix convolution. It is fast in implementation and is effective to avoid the spectral distortion problem. Experimental results on a large number of Pan and multispectral images show that the improved CS methods have good performance on the spatial and spectral fidelity. Moreover, experiments carried out on large-size images also show an excellent running time performance of the proposed methods.
