چکیده

A process is designed to fuse multiple images of the same scene to produce an image that contains less noise and more information. First, the speckle noise is removed. Second, histogram equalization is applied to expose details and maximize the information content of the image. Third, images are registered to prepare for fusion. In the fourth step, we apply our new pointwise spatial frequency methodology by computing it at each pixel in each image. The images are then fused at each output pixel location by comparing the pointwise spatial frequency values at that location in all images and selecting the pixel with the highest such value. The fifth step enlarges this image with fuzzy interpolation for more detail.

Fusion of Panchromatic and Multispectral Images Using Non Subsampled Contourlet Transform and FFT Based Spectral Histogram (RESEARCH NOTE)

Image fusion is a method for obtaining a highly informative image by merging the relative information of an object obtained from two or more image sources of the same scene. The satellite cameras give a single band panchromatic (PAN) image with high spatial information and multispectral (MS) image with more spectral information. The problem exists today is either PAN or MS image is available fr...

Multimodal medical image fusion based on Yager’s intuitionistic fuzzy sets

The objective of image fusion for medical images is to combine multiple images obtained from various sources into a single image suitable for better diagnosis. Most of the state-of-the-art image fusing technique is based on nonfuzzy sets, and the fused image so obtained lags with complementary information. Intuitionistic fuzzy sets (IFS) are determined to be more suitable for civilian, and medi...

Comparative Evaluation of Image Fusion Methods for Hyperspectral and Panchromatic Data Fusion in Agricultural and Urban Areas

Nowadays remote sensing plays a key role in the field of earth science studies due to some of the advantages, including data collection at a very low cost and time on a very large scale. Meanwhile, using hyperspectral data is of great importance due to the high spectral resolution. Because of some limitations, such as hyperspectral imaging technology, it suffers from a reduction in the spatial ...

Multi-Focus Image Fusion in DCT Domain using Variance and Energy of Laplacian and Correlation Coefficient for Visual Sensor Networks

The purpose of multi-focus image fusion is gathering the essential information and the focused parts from the input multi-focus images into a single image. These multi-focus images are captured with different depths of focus of cameras. A lot of multi-focus image fusion techniques have been introduced using considering the focus measurement in the spatial domain. However, the multi-focus image ...

Fusion of Thermal Infrared and Visible Images Based on Multi-scale Transform and Sparse Representation

Due to the differences between the visible and thermal infrared images, combination of these two types of images is essential for better understanding the characteristics of targets and the environment. Thermal infrared images have most importance to distinguish targets from the background based on the radiation differences, which work well in all-weather and day/night conditions also in land s...

Multi-focus Image Fusion Using Spatial Frequency and Genetic Algorithm

We introduce in this paper a region based multi-focus image fusion algorithm using spatial frequency and genetic algorithm. The basic idea is to divide the source images into blocks, and then select the corresponding blocks with higher spatial frequency value to construct the resultant fused image. GA is brought forward to determine the suitable sizes of the block.
