A deep learning framework for matching of SAR and optical imagery

Devis Tuia, Lloyd Haydn Hughes

SAR and optical imagery provide highly complementary information about observed scenes. A combined use of these two modalities is thus desirable in many data fusion scenarios. However, any data fusion task requires measurements to be accurately aligned. Wh ...
