Synthetically Evaluation System for Multi-source Image Fusion and Experimental Analysis

摘要

Study on the evaluation system for multi-source image fusion is an important and necessary part of image fusion. Qualitative evaluation indexes and quantitative evaluation indexes were studied. A series of new concepts, such as independent single evaluation index, union single evaluation index, synthetic evaluation index were proposed. Based on these concepts, synthetic evaluation system for digital image fusion was formed. The experiments with the wavelet fusion method, which was applied to fuse the multi-spectral image and panchromatic remote sensing image, the IR image and visible image, the CT and MRI image, and the multi-focus images show that it is an objective, uniform and effective quantitative method for image fusion evaluation.
