Abstract

A multisensor image fusion approach established on the hybrid-domain image enhancement and double nonsubsampled contourlet transform (NSCT) is proposed. The hybrid-domain pre-enhancement algorithm can promote the contrast of the visible color image. Different fusion rules are, respectively, selected and applied to obtain fusion results. The double NSCT framework is introduced to obtain better fusion performance than the general single NSCT framework. Experimental outcomes in fused images and performance results demonstrate that the presented approach is apparently more advantageous.
