Subject to the imaging principle, manufacturing technology and other factors, the spatial resolution of spaceborne hyperspectral remote sensing imagery is relatively low. Therefore, the thesis proposed the image fusion of hyperspectral imagery and high spatial resolution imagery, and designed the best fusion algorithm to enhance spatial resolution of hyperspectral remote sensing imagery. According to the characteristics of Earth Observing-1 (EO-1) Hyperion hyperspectral imagery and Advanced Land Imager (ALI) panchromatic imagery, 4 kinds of fusion algorithms were selected to carry out a comparative study of the image fusion effect for the city and mountain regions from 9 kinds of remote sensing image fusion algorithms, namely Gram-Schmidt spectral sharpening fusion method, transform fusion method of Smoothing Filter-based Intensity Modulation (SFIM), Weighted Average Method (WAM) fusion method and Wavelet Transformation (WT) fusion method. And it carried out the comprehensive evaluation and analysis of the image fusion effect from 3 aspects of qualitative, quantitative and classification precision, which aims to determine the best fusion method for EO-1 hyperspectral imagery and panchromatic imagery. The experimental results show that: 1) from the image fusion effect, Gram-Schmidt spectral sharpening fusion method is the best in 4 kinds of fusion methods used; 2) from the image classification effect, the classification results based on the fusion image is better than the classification results based on the source image. The theoretical analysis and experimental results show that Gram-Schmidt spectral sharpening fusion method is an ideal fusion algorithm for hyperspectral imagery and high spatial resolution imagery, and it can provide powerful support to improve the clarity of hyperspectral remote sensing imagery, the reliability and the accuracy of the image object recognition and classification.
Concerning the problem of low robustness of general watermarking algorithms in resisting JPEG compression and geometric transform attacks, a zero-watermarking algorithm based on Cellular Automata (CA) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) was proposed. Firstly, an image was transformed by 2-dimensional cellular automata transform and the low-frequency subband approximation image were isolated, then the CA parameters was saved as key. After that, the approximation image was sub-blocked, and the blocks were decomposed by SVD, then the zero-watermark was constructed by CA rule in SVD matrix. In image authentication, the image could be certificated by comparing the similarity of two watermarks with the threshold value. The experimental result shows that this algorithm has good invisibility and perfect robustness in resisting JPEG compression and geometric transform attacks.
