With the development of deep learning technology, multi-spectral image super-resolution methods based on convolutional neural network have recently achieved great progress. However, the single hyperspectral image super-resolution remains a challenging problem due to the high-dimensional and complex spectral characteristics of hyperspectral data, which make it difficult to simultaneously capture spatial and spectral information. To deal with this issue, we propose a novel Feedback Refined Local-Global Network (FRLGN) for the super-resolution of hyperspectral image. To be specific, we develop a new Feedback Structure and a Local-Global Spectral Block to alleviate the difficulty in spatial and spectral feature extraction. The Feedback Structure can transfer the high-level information to guide the generation process of low-level feature, which is achieved by a recurrent structure with finite unfoldings. Furthermore, in order to effectively use the high-level information passed back, a Local-Global Spectral Block is constructed to handle the feedback connections. The Local-Global Spectral Block utilizes the feedback high-level information to correct the low-level feature from local spectral bands and generates powerful high-level representations among global spectral bands. By incorporating the Feedback Structure and Local-Global Spectral Block, the FRLGN can fully exploit spatial-spectral correlations among spectral bands and gradually reconstruct high-resolution hyperspectral images. The source code of FRLGN is available at https://github.com/tangzhenjie/FRLGN.

Deep learning has revolutionized solar image analysis, yet most approaches train task-specific encoders from scratch or rely on natural-image pretraining that ignores the unique characteristics of Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) data. We introduce SolarCHIP, a family of contrastively pretrained visual backbones tailored to multi-instrument SDO observations. SolarCHIP addresses three key challenges in solar imaging: multimodal sensing across AIA and HMI instruments, weak inter-class separability due to slow temporal evolution, and strong intra-class variability with sparse activity signals. Our pretraining framework employs a multi-granularity contrastive objective that jointly aligns (1) global class tokens across co-temporal AIA-HMI pairs to enhance temporal discrimination, (2) local patch tokens at fixed spatial indices to enforce position-consistent, modality-invariant features, and (3) intra-sample patches across different spatial locations to preserve fine-grained spatial structure. We train both CNN- and Vision Transformer-based autoencoders and demonstrate their effectiveness on two downstream tasks: cross-modal translation between HMI and AIA passbands via ControlNet, and full-disk flare classification. Experimental results show that SolarCHIP achieves state-of-the-art performance across both tasks, with particularly strong gains in low-resource settings where labeled data is limited. Ablation studies confirm that each contrastive component contributes essential discriminative capacity at different granularities. By publicly releasing pretrained weights and training code, we provide the heliophysics community with a practical, plug-and-play feature extractor that reduces computational requirements, improves label efficiency, and establishes a reusable foundation for diverse solar imaging applications.
