According to the problem,the traditional measurement is decided only by the high-frequency detail coefficients, which will make the energy expression insufficient to reflect the local clarity. Therefore,in this paper,a novel construction method for activity measurement is proposed. Firstly,it uses the wavelet decomposition for the fusion resource image, and then utilizes the high and low frequency wavelet coefficients synthetically. Meantime,it takes the normalized variance as the weight of high-frequency energy. Secondly,it calculates the measurement by the weighted energy,which can be used to measure the local character. Finally,the fusion coefficients can be got. In order to illustrate the superiority of this new method,three kinds of assessing indicators are provided. The experiment results show that,comparing with the traditional methods,this new method weakens the fuzzy and promotes the indicator value. Therefore,it has much more advantages for practical application.展开更多

Methods The source medical images are initially transformed by DWT followed by fusing low and high frequency sub-images. Then, the "coefficient absolute value" that can provide clear and detail parts is adapted to fuse high-frequency coefficients, where as the "region energy ratio" which can efficiently preserve most information of source images is employed to fuse low-frequency coefficients. Finally, the fused image is reconstructed by inverse wavelet transform. Results Visually and quantitatively experimental results indicate that the proposed fusion method is superior to traditional wavelet transform and the existing fusion methods. Conclusion The proposed method is a feasible approach for multimodal medical image fusion which can obtain more efficient and accurate fusions results even in the noise environment.展开更多

In which only measured the high-pass wavelet coefficients of the image but preserved the low-pass wavelet coefficient. Then, fuse the low-pass wavelet coefficients and the measurements of high-pass wavelet coefficient with different schemes. For the reconstruction, by using the minimization of total variation algorithm (TV), high-pass wavelet coefficients could be recovered by the fused measurements. Finally, the fused image could be reconstructed by the inverse wavelet transform. The experiments show the proposed method provides promising fusion performance with a low computational complexity.展开更多

On the basis of wavelet transforms theory, this article proposes a high dynamic range imaging confusion method which combines with wavelet decomposition. First, perform a wavelet multi-scale decomposition to the two registered source image; then conduct wavelet inverse transform to the decomposed images. This paper focuses on the characteristics of high frequency and low frequency domain after wavelet decomposition,using different fusion methods in each of the frequency domain, finally obtain the fused image through inverse wavelet transform image reconstruction. The simulation results and evaluation index results show that, compared with other similar methods, this method is better in retaining the original image's details information, and improves the quality of fusion image.展开更多

With the regional trial results in Baoying, Jiangsu province, this paper explored the fusion model and effect of ENVISAT/SAR and HJ-1A satel ite multispectral remote sensing images. Based on the ARSIS strat-egy, using the wavelet transform and the Interaction between the Band Structure Model （IBSM）, the research progressed the ENVISAT satel ite SAR and the HJ-1A satel ite CCD images wavelet decomposition, and low/high frequency coefficient re-construction, and obtained the fusion images through the inverse wavelet transform. In the light of low and high-frequency images have different characteristics in differ-ent areas, different fusion rules which can enhance the integration process of self-adaptive were taken, with comparisons with the PCA transformation, IHS transfor-mation and other traditional methods by subjective and the corresponding quantita-tive evaluation. Furthermore, the research extracted the bands and NDVI values around the fusion with GPS samples, analyzed and explained the fusion effect. The results showed that the spectral distortion of wavelet fusion, IHS transform, PCA transform images was 0.101 6, 0.326 1 and 1.277 2, respectively and entropy was 14.701 5, 11.899 3 and 13.229 3, respectively, the wavelet fusion is the highest. The method of wavelet maintained good spectral capability, and visual effects while improved the spatial resolution, the information interpretation effect was much better than other two methods.展开更多

The perceptual salient image features often manifest some geometric structures, while noise dominated images are less structured. Based on complex wavelet transform, a structurization information metric is formulated by means of the Von Neumann entropy. The formulated metric can distinguish image features from noise very well. During the fusion process, the metric is employed to weight all fusion inputs. As a result, the perceptual meaningful inputs are enhanced while the noise inputs are de-emphasized adaptively. Comparing several image fusion schemes subjectively and objectively shows the good performance of the new scheme.展开更多

Any of these parameters alone or their combined result can affect the final outcome of a wireless sensor network. As such, total elimination of these parameters could also be damaging to the final outcome, as it may result in removing useful information that can benefit the decision making process. Several efforts have been made to find the optimal balance between which parameters, where, and how to remove them. For the most part, experts in the field agree that it is more beneficial to remove noise and/or compress data at the node level. We have developed computationally low power, low bandwidth, and low cost filters that will remove the noise and compress the data so that a decision can be made at the node level. This wavelet-based method is guaranteed to converge to a stationary point for both uncorrelated and correlated sensor data. This is mainly stressed so that the low power, low bandwidth, and low computational overhead of the wireless sensor network node constraints are met while fused datasets can still be used to make reliable decisions.展开更多
