A Temporal-Spectral Generative Adversarial Fusion Network for Improving Satellite Hyperspectral Temporal Resolution

The improvement of temporal resolution of hyperspectral (HS) data is a fundamental and challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a Temporal-Spectral fusion method based on Generative Adversarial Network (TSF-GAN). First, the generator is used to train the nonlinear relationship between multispectral (MS) and HS data pairs at time T1 and T3, and we map the relationship to the MS data at T2 to obtain the HS data. Second, the discriminator is used to identify whether the differential image of HS data at different times is consistent with that of MS data, and whether the HS data at time T2 after spectral down-sampling is consistent with that of MS data at time T2. Preliminary experimental results demonstrate that the proposed TSF-GAN achieves comparative fidelity and has strong practicability.
