Patent ID: 11481876

Abstract:
Systems, methods and apparatus for image processing for reconstructing a super resolution image from multispectral (MS) images. Receive image data and initialize a fused image using a panchromatic (PAN) image, and estimate a blur kernel between the PAN image and the MS images as an initialization function. Iteratively, fuse a MS image with an associated PAN image of a scene using a fusing algorithm. Each iteration includes: update the blur kernel based on a Second-Order Total Generalized Variation function to regularize a kernel shape; fuse the PAN image and MS images with the updated blur kernel based on a local Laplacian prior function to regularize the high-resolution information to obtain an estimated fused image; compute a relative error between the estimated fused image of the current iteration and a previous estimated fused image from a previous iteration, to a predetermined threshold, to stop iterations stop, to obtain a PAN-sharpened image.
