Abstract :
In the image fusion scheme presented in this paper, the wavelet transforms of the input images are appropriately combined, and the new image is obtained by taking the inverse wavelet transform of the fused wavelet coefficients. An area-based maximum selection rule and a consistency verification step are used for feature selection. A performance measure using specially generated test images is also suggested
