Abstract
Against the defects that the favoritism method and average method in the multi-sensor image fusion are apt to impair the image contrast, an image fusion algorithm based on NSCT is proposed. Firstly, this algorithm applied NSCT to the rectified multi-sensor images from the same scene, then different fusion strategies were adopted to fuse the low-frequency and high-frequency directional sub-band coefficients respectively: regional energy adaptive weighted method was used for low-frequency sub-band coefficient; the directional sub-band coefficient adopted a regional-energy-matching program that combined weighted average method and selection method. Finally, the fusion image was obtained by NSCT inverse transformation. Experiments were conducted to IR and visible light image and multi-focus image respectively. And the fusion image was evaluated objectively. The experimental results show that the fusion image obtained through this algorithm has better subjective visual effects and objective quantitative indicators. It is also superior to the traditional fusion method.
