Image fusion technology for security and surveillance applications

Towards cognitive image fusion

“…The average subject's age was 21.3 years (standard deviation = 2.7 years). A mixture of CRT (37) and TFT (26) screens were used. Optical mice were employed throughout.…”

“…Some potential benefits of image fusion are: wider spatial and temporal coverage, decreased uncertainty, improved reliability, and increased robustness of system. Image fusion is used in defense applications for situation awareness [43], surveillance [37], target tracking [56], intelligence gathering [35], and person authentication [24] (for a recent survey of different applications of image fusion techniques see [4]). Three fundamental requirements for effective image fusion are [40]:…”

Multimodal gray image fusion metric based on complex wavelet structural similarity

“…In the last decades, image fusion has got a lot of applications in different fields, such as surveillance, medical imaging, remote sensing and computer version [1][2][3][4]. All the progresses depend on the operational image fusion algorithms [5][6][7][8].…”

A variational approach for enhanced visualization to multisensor image fusion

“…Surveillance systems are currently being used for security surveillance, navigation as well as battlefield monitoring [1][2][3] . Usually, multiple sensors are utilized to enhance vision capabilities.…”
