Abstract

The Sentinel-2 (S2) constellation provides multispectral images at 10 m, 20 m, and 60 m resolution bands. Obtaining all bands at 10 m resolution would benefit many applications. Recently, many model-based and deep learning (DL)-based sharpening methods have been proposed. However, the downside of those methods is that the DL-based methods need to be trained separately for the 20 m and the 60 m bands in a supervised manner at reduced-resolution, while the model-based methods heavily depend on the hand-crafted image priors. To break the gap, this paper proposes a novel unsupervised DL-based S2 sharpening method using a single convolutional neural network (CNN) to sharpen the 20 m and 60 m bands at the same time at full-resolution. The proposed method replaces the hand-crafted image prior by the deep image prior (DIP) provided by a CNN structure whose parameters are easily optimized using a DL optimizer. We also incorporate the modulation transfer function (MTF)-based degradation model as a network layer, and add all bands to both network input and output. This setting improves the DIP and exploits the advantage of multitask learning since all S2 bands are highly correlated. Extensive experiments with real S2 data show that our proposed method outperforms competitive methods for reduced-resolution evaluation and yields very high quality sharpened image for full-resolution evaluation.

Usage:

  • Run the jupyter notebook file and see the results.
    • The file S2SingleNet-Final-RR is for the reduced-resolution evaluation
    • The file S2SingleNet-Final-FF is for full-resolution evaluation
  • Data (preprocessing in Matlab) are in folder data
    • A matlab file contains y10, y20, and y60 which are the 10 m, 20 m, and 60 m, respectively.
  • CNN models are in folder models
  • Some helped functions are in the folder utils

Enviroment:

  • Tensorflow 2.1
  • Numpy
  • Scipy, Skimage

Results

  • Reduced resolution evaluation image
  • Full resolution evaluation image image
