چکیده

In this paper, a new metric for evaluating the performance of the combinative pixel-level image fusion is defined based on an image feature measurement, i.e. phase congruency and its moments, which provide an absolute measurement of image features. By comparing the local cross-correlation of corresponding feature maps of input images and fused output, the quality of the fused result is assessed without a reference. The experimental results on multi-focused image pairs demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach.

An efficient method for cloud detection based on the feature-level fusion of Landsat-8 OLI spectral bands in deep convolutional neural network

Cloud segmentation is a critical pre-processing step for any multi-spectral satellite image application. In particular, disaster-related applications e.g., flood monitoring or rapid damage mapping, which are highly time and data-critical, require methods that produce accurate cloud masks in a short time while being able to adapt to large variations in the target domain (induced by atmospheric c...

Object Level Strategy for Spectral Quality Assessment of High Resolution Pan-sharpen Images

Panchromatic and multi-spectral images produced by the remote sensing satellites are fused together to provide a multi-spectral image with a high spatial resolution at the same time. The spectral quality of the fused images is very important because the quality of a large number of remote sensing products depends on it. Due to the importance of the spectral quality of the fused images, its eval...

Finger-Vein Recognition Based on Fusion of Pixel Level Feature and Super-Pixel Level Feature

Finger-vein is a promising biometric technique for the identity authentication. However, the finger displacement or the illumination variation in image capturing may cause bad recognition performance. To overcome these limitations, multi-biometric system, an effective method to improve the performance, is proposed. In this paper, a new multimodal biometric system based on pixel level feature an...
