As the transformation from low spatial resolution MS image to high-resolution MS image is complex and highly non-linear, inspired by the powerful representation for non-linear relationships of deep neural networks, we introduce multi-scale feature extraction and residual learning into the basic convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture and propose the multi-scale and multi-depth convolutional neural network (MSDCNN) for the pan-sharpening of remote sensing imagery. Both the quantitative assessment results and the visual assessment confirm that the proposed network yields high-resolution MS images that are superior to the images produced by the compared state-of-the-art methods.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-12-28T10:28:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "multi-depth convolutional neural network", "remote sensing imagery pan-sharpening", "spatial resolution ms image", "yields high-resolution ms images", "multi-scale" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
