Abstract
Image fusion is a method for obtaining a highly informative image by
merging the relative information of an object
obtained from two or more image
sources of the same scene. The satellite cameras give a single band
panchromatic (PAN)
image with high spatial information and multispectral (MS)
image with more spectral information. The problem exists
today is either PAN or
MS image is available from satellite camera. In many remote sensing
applications, there is a need
for
enhancement of the MS image with
more spatial resolution for further analysis. In this work, a new
fusion
technique is proposed in order to get a combined image by integrating PAN image
and MS image. PAN and MS images
are decomposed using non subsampled contourlet
transform (NSCT). Then, the fourth order correlation coefficient (FOCC)
is
found between the low frequency components of both images. If FOCC is greater than an optimum threshold
value, then
the corresponding higher frequency components of the PAN image are
injected into the respective locations of
the MS
image. Otherwise MS image components are retained. For
calculating the optimum threshold value, n number of test fused
images
are formed by using n arbitrary threshold values. FOCC between the PAN
image and the test fused images
are
plotted for various threshold values. Similarly, hamming distance of FFT based spectral histogram curves
between
the MS image and the above test fused images are plotted. The point of
intersection of these two curves
gives
the optimum threshold value. The fused image is obtained using inverse NSCT.
The evaluation shows that the
proposed work gives better improved results than
the other existing methods.

چکیده
فیوژن تصویر
روشی برای به دست آوردن یک تصویر بسیار پرمعنی با ادغام اطلاعات نسبی از یک شیء به
دست آمده از دو یا چند منبع تصویر از همان صحنه است. دوربین
های ماهواره ای یک تصویر پانکروماتیک تک باند (PAN) با
اطلاعات مکانی بالا و تصویر چند طیفی (MS) با اطلاعات
طیفی می دهند. مشکلی که
امروز وجود دارد این است
که تصویر MS یا PAN از
دوربین ماهواره ای در دسترس است. در
بسیاری از کاربردهای سنجش از دور، یک نیاز برای بهبود تصویر MS با
رزولوشن فضایی بالاتر برای تجزیه و تحلیل بیشتر وجود دارد. در
این کار، یک روش فیوژن جدید به منظور به دست آوردن یک تصویر ترکیبی با یکپارچه
سازی تصویر PAN و تصویر MS ارائه
شده است. تصاویر PAN
و MS با استفاده از NSCTتجزیه
می شود. پس از آن، ضریب همبستگی مرتبه چهارم (FOCC) بین اجزای فرکانس کم از هر دو تصویر پیدا می شود. اگر FOCC از یک مقدار آستانه مطلوب بیشتر باشد، اجزای فرکانس بالاتر
تصویر PAN مربوطه به مکان های مربوطه از تصویر MS تزریق می شوند. در
غیر این صورت اجزای تصویر MS حفظ می شوند. برای محاسبه مقدار آستانه مطلوب، n تعداد تصویر ترکیب شده تست با استفاده از n مقدار آستانه دلخواه تشکیل می شود. FOCC بین
تصویر PAN و تصاویر فیوژن تست برای
مقادیر مختلف آستانه رسم می شود. به
طور مشابه، فاصله همینگ از منحنی
هیستوگرام طیفی که بر اساس FFTاست بین
تصویر MS و تصاویر ترکیب شده تست بالا
رسم می شود. نقطه تقاطع
این دو منحنی مقدار آستانه مطلوب را می دهد. تصویر
ترکیب شده است با استفاده از معکوس NSCT به دست می
آید. ارزیابی نشان می دهد که کار
پیشنهادی نتایج بهبود یافته ای بهتر از سایر روش های موجود می دهد.
