Image fusion is the process by which input images are fused in order to increase the quality. The input images must be the images of the same scene with different quality measures. The quality of the output image will be better than any of the input images. The main methods of the image fusion involve simple image fusion, pyramid based image fusion and wavelet based image fusion. Image fusion m...

We present a new method to register high and low resolution color images of the retina as well as high resolution angiographies. The registration method is based on global point mapping with blood vessel bifurcations as control points. We also present results of various image fusion algorithms to determine the most appropriate one. Registration and fusion quality assessment is also discussed.

Image fusion in the field of remote sensing deals with combination of multispectral and panchromatic image. The idea of such combination is to derive best information out of it. A multispectral image is spectral rich whereas a panchromatic image is spatially sound so their combination gives better information in terms of best spatial and spectral parameters. This Paper aims at evaluating variou...

The fast development of digital image processing leads to the growth of feature extraction of images which leads to the development of Image fusion. Image fusion is defined as the process of combining two or more different images into a new single image retaining important features from each image with extended information content. There are two approaches to image fusion, namely Spatial Fusion...

Image fusion is to reduce uncertainty and minimize redundancy in the output while maximizing relevant information from two or more images of a scene into a single composite image that is more informative and is more suitable for visual perception or processing tasks like medical imaging, remote sensing, concealed weapon detection, weather forecasting, biometrics etc. Image fusion combines regis...

Data fusion under the belief function framework has attracted the interest of many researchers over the past few years. Until now, many combination rules have been proposed in order to aggregate beliefs induced form dependent or independent information sources. Although the choice of the most appropriate rule among several alternatives is crucial, it still requires non-trivial effort. In this i...
