Spatial, Temporal, and Interchannel Image Data Fusion for Long-Distance Terrestrial Observation Systems

Figure 14

Fusing visual- and thermal-range channel images using two described methods for computing the VI-weights. Figure (c) is the fused image using variance and distance from the local average as weights for the visual- and thermal-range channels, respectively. Figure (d) presents the same input images (a) and (b) fused using VI-weights as defined by (8) and (10) for the visual and thermal channels.
