SFDA-MEF: An Unsupervised Spacecraft Feature Deformable Alignment Network for Multi-Exposure Image Fusion by Qianwen Xiong, Xiaoyuan Ren, Huanyu Yin, Libing Jiang, Canyu Wang, Zhuang Wang

“…The relative attitude of the spacecraft in the camera coordinate system undergoes continuous changes during the orbital rendezvous, which leads to a large proportion of moving pixels between adjacent frames. Concurrently, subsequent tasks of the In-Orbit Servicing (IOS) system, such as attitude estimation, are highly sensitive to variations in multi-view geometric relationships, which means that the fusion result should preserve the shape of the spacecraft with minimal distortion. …”
