Fine grained medical image fusion using type-2 fuzzy logic

Abstract

<p>In recent years, many fast-growing technologies coupled with wide volume of medical data for the digitalization of that data. Thus, researchers have shown their immense interest on Multi-sensor image fusion technologies which convey image information based on data from various sensor modalities into a single image. The image fusion technique is a widespread technique for the diagnosis of medical instrumentation and measurement. Therefore, in this paper we have introduced a novel multimodal sensor medical image fusion method based on type-2 fuzzy logic is proposed using Sugeno model. Moreover, a Gaussian smoothen filter is introduced to extract the detailed information of an image using sharp feature points.Type-2 fuzzy algorithm is used to achieve highly efficient feature points from both the b images to provide high visually classified resultant image. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve better performance than the state-of-the- art methods in terms of visual quality and objective evaluation.</p>
