Multi-Focus Image Fusion Based on Shearlet Transform Using Genetic Algorithm
In this paper, a novel
method for multi focus image fusion based on shearlet transform using genetic
algorithm is proposed. Proposed method consist of three basic steps. First of
all, ST is firstly applied to source images separately. Then, fusion rate of
source images is determined using GA and source images are fused according to
the rate of fusion determined by GA. Lastly, fused image is obtained applying inverse ST to fused image of ST. Fused image
is evaluated according to quality metrics such as variance, spatial frequency.
Experimental results show that the proposed method is more effectively than
traditional method. Together with GA and ST for multi focus image fusion is
firstly presented in literature.
