  • Abstract
    Performance evaluation method that can compare and analyze different fusion techniques is an essential part in the development of image fusion techniques. This paper mainly discusses the applications and restrictions of performance evaluation metrics such as statistics feature related, information theory related, correlation information entropy, information deviation and etc. Accurate and effective assessment of the performances of image fusion techniques may instruct the development of the fusion methods, and increase the efficiency of image fusion system realization.
