ASSR-Net: Anisotropic Structure-Aware and Spectrally Recalibrated Network for Hyperspectral Image Fusion
This work improves hyperspectral image fusion for applications like remote sensing by offering incremental enhancements to spatial and spectral quality.
The paper tackled the problem of hyperspectral image fusion by addressing challenges in reconstructing anisotropic spatial structures and reducing spectral distortion, resulting in a method that outperforms state-of-the-art approaches with superior spatial detail preservation and spectral consistency.
Hyperspectral image fusion aims to reconstruct high-spatial-resolution hyperspectral images (HR-HSI) by integrating complementary information from multi-source inputs. Despite recent progress, existing methods still face two critical challenges: (1) inadequate reconstruction of anisotropic spatial structures, resulting in blurred details and compromised spatial quality; and (2) spectral distortion during fusion, which hinders fine-grained spectral representation. To address these issues, we propose \textbf{ASSR-Net}: an Anisotropic Structure-Aware and Spectrally Recalibrated Network for Hyperspectral Image Fusion. ASSR-Net adopts a two-stage fusion strategy comprising anisotropic structure-aware spatial enhancement (ASSE) and hierarchical prior-guided spectral calibration (HPSC). In the first stage, a directional perception fusion module adaptively captures structural features along multiple orientations, effectively reconstructing anisotropic spatial patterns. In the second stage, a spectral recalibration module leverages the original low-resolution HSI as a spectral prior to explicitly correct spectral deviations in the fused results, thereby enhancing spectral fidelity. Extensive experiments on various benchmark datasets demonstrate that ASSR-Net consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods, achieving superior spatial detail preservation and spectral consistency.
