Swin–MRDB: Pan-Sharpening Model Based on the Swin Transformer and Multi-Scale CNN.

Pan-sharpening aims to create high-resolution spectrum images by fusing low-resolution hyperspectral (HS) images with high-resolution panchromatic (PAN) images. Inspired by the Swin transformer used in image classification tasks, this research constructs a three-stream pan-sharpening network based on the Swin transformer and a multi-scale feature extraction module. Unlike the traditional convolutional neural network (CNN) pan-sharpening model, we use the Swin transformer to establish global connections with the image and combine it with a multi-scale feature extraction module to extract local features of different sizes. The model combines the advantages of the Swin transformer and CNN, enabling fused images to maintain good local detail and global linkage by mitigating distortion in hyperspectral images. In order to verify the effectiveness of the method, this paper evaluates fused images with subjective visual and quantitative indicators. Experimental results show that the method proposed in this paper can better preserve the spatial and spectral information of images compared to the classical and latest models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
