| contents | Mainstream optical satellites often acquire multispectral multi-resolution images, which have limited material identifiability compared to the HSIs. Thus, spectrally super-resolving the MSI into their hyperspectral counterparts greatly facilitates remote material identification and the downstream tasks. However, spectrally super-resolving the MSI into an HSI is often constrained by the multi-resolution nature of the sensor. Specifically, due to the presence of some LR bands in the MSI, the initial spectral super-resolution results often appear to be spatially blurry, resulting in an LR HSI. To overcome this bottleneck, we then leverage some HR band inherent in the acquired MSI to spatially guide the reconstruction procedure, thereby yielding the desired HR HSI. This fusion procedure elegantly coincides with a widely known spatial super-resolution problem in satellite remote sensing. Hence, we have reformulated the tough spectral super-resolution problem into a more widely investigated spatial super-resolution problem, referred to as the spectral-spatial duality theory. Accordingly, we propose ExplainS2A, consisting of a deep unfolding network and an explainable fusion network, that unifies spectral recovery and spatial fusion into a single explainable framework. Unlike conventional black-box models, ExplainS2A offers interpretability and operates as a linear-time algorithm. Remarkably, it can process a million-scale Sentinel-2 image in less than one second, yielding high-fidelity HSI over the same scene, and upgrades the blind source separation results. Although demonstrated on the Sentinel-2 and AVIRIS sensors, ExplainS2A also serves as a general framework applicable to various sensor pairs with different resolution configurations, and has experimentally demonstrated cross-region and cross-season generalization ability.
