Abstract :
The infrared imaging (comprising both the thermal infrared and the near infrared bands) became an imaging modality at hand, with the potential of providing insights in the unseen components of various physical and biological processes. Various experiments have shown that the focusing of infrared images is significant different from the focus of visible band images, posing significant problems in autofocus. This contribution investigates the performance of several classical and recent focus measures in the infrared image domain.
