Abstract
Infrared images have good anti-environmental interference ability and can capture hot target information well, but their pictures lack rich detailed texture information and poor contrast. Visible image has clear and detailed texture information, but their imaging process depends more on the environment, and the quality of the environment determines the quality of the visible image. This paper presents an infrared image and visual image fusion algorithm based on deep learning. Two identical feature extractors are used to extract the features of visible and infrared images of different scales, fuse these features through specific fusion methods, and restore the features of visible and infrared images to the pictures through the feature restorer to make up for the deficiencies in the various photos of infrared and visible images. This paper tests infrared visual images, multi-focus images, and other data sets. The traditional image fusion algorithm is compared several with the current advanced image fusion algorithm. The experimental results show that the image fusion method proposed in this paper can keep more feature information of the source image in the fused image, and achieve excellent results in some image evaluation indexes.
