Abstract

In this paper, a novel image fusion method based on the finite ridgelet transform(FRIT). Firstly, the problem that wavelet transform could not efficiently represent the singularity of linear/curve in image processing is analyzed. Secondly, the principal of FRIT and its good performance in expressing the singularity of two or higher dimensional are studied. Finally, the feasibility of image fusion using FRIT is discussed in detail. A new fusion method based on FRIT and the fusion framework are proposed. The transform coefficients structure and the fusion procedure are given in detail in this paper. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm works better in preserving the edge and texture information than the wavelet transform method and the Laplacian pyramid methods do in image fusion.
