Image-based fusion for video enhancement of night-time surveillance

Abstract

In this paper, a novel image-based fusion video enhancement algorithmis proposed for night-time video surveillance applications by acombination of illumination fusion and based on moving objects fusion.The proposed algorithm fuses video frames from high quality day-timeand night-time background with low quality night-time videos. Forimproving the perception quality of the moving objects, based on movingobjects of region fusion method is proposed. Experimental results showthe effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
