Robust Multisensor Image Matching Using Bayesian Estimated Mutual Information

Figure 1

A mismatching example of MI. (a) An infrared template image, (b) a visible reference image and the matching result, and (c) the matching result of our method. There are many background textures around the target (car) of the infrared image, but only a few in the VS image, which decrease the statistical relationship and lead to a mismatching when using the NMI method. The matching result is shown by superimposing the Sobel edges of the template image directly on the reference image.
