Cross-sensor registration optimization study

摘要

Multi-sensor and multi-spectral data fusion is becoming a very useful technology to solve a host of defense and commercial imaging and computer vision probems. Many of the techniques that can be used to fuse multi-sensor image data require co-registration or alighment of pixels between image bands. We have performed a non-arametric study to determine which multi-spectral bands should be chosen for optimum pixel level alighment. The data used during this study is composed of two aerial multi-spectral sensor ()one with 3 visible bands and one with 5 bands in the visible and short wave infrared and one synthetic aperture radar sensor in the X-band.
