Abstract :
A new method for image fusion has been proposed which utilizes tensor unfolding and SVD in DCT transform domain. Simulations results of the proposed technique shows that the quality of the fused image is better than that in simple averaging method and comparable with the result obtained using dual tree complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) method existing in the literature.
