OBJECTIVE:

The fusion image is the process of combining two or


more images into a single image. Wavelet transform
fusion is the most common form of transform image
fusion.
Image fusion improves geometric corrections and
sharpness the image. It also replace the data.
Digital image processing:

 An image may be defined as a two dimensional function f(x,y).where x,y


are the spatial coordinates
 The amplitude of f at pair of coordinates (x,y) is called intensity or gray
level of image
 A gray scale image is a function I(x,y) of two spatial coordinates of the
image plane
I(x,y) f the is the intensity of the image at point (x , y)
FOURIER AND WAVELET ANALYSIS OF IMAGES:

Fourier analysis:

 Fourier analysis is a mathematical technique for transforming our view of


the signal from time based to frequencey based.

 It is a serious draw back, in transforming to the frequency domain time


information lost.
Short-Time Fourier Analysis:

 Dennis Gabor (1946) adapted the Fourier transform to analyze only a small
section of the signal at a time—a technique called windowing the signal.
 Gabor’s adaptation, called the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT), maps
a signal into a two-dimensional function of time and frequency
Wavelet Analysis:
 A wavelet is a waveform of effectively limited duration that has an average

value of zero.
 Sinusoids do not have limited duration — they extend from minus to plus

infinity. And where sinusoids are smooth and predictable, wavelets tend to
be irregular and asymmetric.
Wavelet Analysis Representation:
 Wavelet analysis allows the use of long time intervals where we want more
precise low-frequency information, and shorter regions where we want
high-frequency information.

The Continuous Wavelet Transform:

 which is the sum over all time of the signal f(t) multiplied by a complex
exponential.
What’s continuous about the continuous wavelet transform:

The CWT is also continuous in terms of shifting during computation, the


analyzing wavelet is shifted smoothly over the full domain of the analyzed
function.
Discrete Wavelet Transform:
 An efficient way to implement this scheme using filters was developed in
1988 by Mallat.

 Calculating wavelet coefficients at every possible scale is a fair amount of


work, and it generates an awful lot of data.

 For many signals, the low-frequency content is the most important


part. It is what gives the signal its identity.
One-Stage Filtering:

Multiple-Level Decomposition:

The decomposition process can be iterated, with successive approximations


being decomposed in turn, so that one signal is broken down into many lower
resolution components. This is called the wavelet decomposition tree.

Wavelet Reconstruction:

Discrete wavelet transform can be used to analyze or decompose signals and


images.

Up sampling is the process of lengthening a signal component by inserting


zeros between samples:

IMAGE FUSION:

Objectives of Image Fusion Schemes:

Related Research Fields of Image Fusion:


Computer Vision
Automatic object detection
Image processing
Robotics
Fusion Rules

• Input images need to be combined to form a new set of coefficients to be


used for backward transform.
Implementing wavelet transform:

Wavelet transform based image fusion involves three steps; forward transform,
coefficient combination and backward transform.
Different wavelets used in the image fusion:

Inputs are
1.multispectral image
2.panchromatic image

Wavelet Decomposition:
 Images are treated as two-dimensional signals, they change horizontally and
vertically, and thus 2D wavelet analysis must be used for images.

Result:

Panchromatic image Multispectral image Fused image using orthogonal


wavelet
Conclusion:

Fusion image contains the useful information of the original


image and the detailed information is greatly improved judging by
visual apperception. The fusion result of WT-based fusion method
loses more spectrum information.
Relatively, the final image of our fusion algorithm is more
natural and it is more advantageous to further image segmentation
and recognition.
