On the Possibility of Conditional Adversarial Networks for SAR Template Generation

Kurzfassung

A major research area in remote sensing is the problem of multi-sensor data fusion. Especially the combination of images acquired by different sensor types, e.g. active and passive, is a difficult task. Over the last years deep learning methods have proven their high potential for remote sensing applications. In this paper we will show how a deep learning method can be valuable for the problem of optical and SAR image matching. We investigate the possible of conditional generative adversarial networks (cGANs) for the generation of artificial templates. Contrary to common template generation approaches for image matching, the generation of templates using cGANs doesn't require the extraction of features. Our results show the possibility of realistic SAR-like template generation from optical images through cGANs and the potential of these templates for enhancing the matching of optical and SAR images by means of reliability and accuracy.
