Probabilistic Image Sensor Fusion
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a probabilistic method for fusion of images produced by multiple sensors . The approach is based on an image formation model in which the sensor images are noisy, locally linear functions of an underlying, true scene. A Bayesian framework then provides for maximum likelihood or maximum a posteriori estimates of the true scene from the sensor images. Maximum likelihood estimates of the parameters of the image formation model involve (local) second order image statistics, and thus are related to local principal component analysis. We demonstrate the efficacy of the method on images from visible-band and infrared sensors .

متن کاملSpatial Correlation Based Sensor Selection Schemes for Probabilistic Area Coverage
This paper develops an analytical model for probabilistic area coverage in terms of the target detection probability. A decision fusion framework is utilized to infer the presence or absence of the target. Analytical results are derived for the target detection and false alarm probabilities in the presence of correlated sensor noise. The spatially correlated sensor observations are utilized to ...
