Abstract

This paper proposes a discriminator-guided visible-to-infrared image translation algorithm based on a generative adversarial network and designs a multi-scale fusion generative network. The generative network enhances the perception of the image’s fine-grained features by fusing features of different scales in the channel direction. Meanwhile, the discriminator performs the infrared image reconstruction task, which provides additional infrared information to train the generator. This enhances the convergence efficiency of generator training through soft label guidance generated through knowledge distillation. The experimental results show that compared to the existing typical infrared image generation algorithms, the proposed method can generate higher-quality infrared images and achieve better performance in both subjective visual description and objective metric evaluation, and that it has better performance in the downstream tasks of the template matching and image fusion tasks.

鉴别器引导可见光到红外图像的转换
提出了一种基于生成对抗网络的判别器制导可见光到红外图像平移算法,并设计了一个多尺度融合生成网络。生成网络通过在通道方向上融合不同尺度的特征来增强对图像细粒度特征的感知。同时,鉴别器执行红外图像重建任务,为训练发生器提供额外的红外信息。通过知识蒸馏生成的软标签引导,提高了生成器训练的收敛效率。实验结果表明,与现有的典型红外图像生成算法相比,所提方法可以生成更高质量的红外图像,在主观视觉描述和客观度量评价方面都取得了更好的性能,并且在模板匹配和图像融合任务的下游任务中具有更好的性能。
