| Summary: | Hyperspectral image (HSI) denoising is a crucial step in image preprocessing as its effectiveness has a direct impact on the accuracy of subsequent tasks such as land cover classification, target recognition, and change detection. However, existing methods suffer from limitations in effectively integrating multi-scale features and adaptively modeling complex noise distributions, making it difficult to construct effective spatial–spectral joint representations. This often leads to issues like detail loss and spectral distortion, especially when dealing with complex mixed noise. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a multi-scale differentiated denoising network based on spatial–spectral cooperative attention (MDSSANet). The network first constructs a multi-scale image pyramid using three downsampling operations and independently models the features at each scale to better capture noise characteristics at different levels. Additionally, a spatial–spectral cooperative attention module (SSCA) and a differentiated multi-scale feature fusion module (DMF) are introduced. The SSCA module effectively captures cross-spectral dependencies and spatial feature interactions through parallel spectral channel and spatial attention mechanisms. The DMF module adopts a multi-branch parallel structure with differentiated processing to dynamically fuse multi-scale spatial–spectral features and incorporates a cross-scale feature compensation strategy to improve feature representation and mitigate information loss. The experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods across several public datasets, exhibiting greater robustness and superior visual performance in tasks such as handling complex noise and recovering small targets. |
