Comparison of Near Infrared And Visible Image Fusion Methods
نویسندگان
چکیده
Visible images are usually merged with midrange infrared images for surveillance enhancement or for non visual tasks like face recognition. The IR images contain information that is not the same as in the visible range images. We test fusion of near infrared images with visible spectrum images for detail enhancement and contrast highlighting using several quality metrics. It is shown that computationally light fusion methods can be utilized for visual enhancement. PCA based approach produces promising results for low ambient light images merged with flash near infrared images.

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...

Due to the differences between the visible and thermal infrared images, the combination of these two types of images leads to better understanding of the characteristics of targets and the environment. Thermal infrared images are really in distinguishing targets from the background based on the radiation differences and land surface temperature (LST) calculation. However, their spatial resolu...
متن کاملCombining Visible and Near-Infrared Cues for image Categorisation
Standard digital cameras are sensitive to radiation in the near-infrared domain, but this additional cue is in general discarded. In this paper, we consider the scene categorisation problem in the context of images where both standard visible RGB channels and near infrared information are available. Using efficient local patch-based Fisher Vector image representations, we show based on thorough...
